Ibexx. Re. SUN. I have managed the development of operating systems and it takes 15 years to develop a mature operating system that is fully featured and will not crash for months. As you know I am a MSFT stock holder, but UNIX, more than likely will be the OS of choice for mission critical applications on smaller computers. The first choice will be Tandem, which it has been since the late 70's, for "real mission critical applications". BTW, Tandem has a UNIX shell. What I am trying to say is NT still has some maturning, both in functionality and reliability, before it takes over the UNIX market. I do believe there is a sufficient "non critical mission" applications for NT in the near term and growth will be large. There are more non critical application uses than critical applications uses in the world. Joan
