Let's see, where do we start. Redmond, hmmmmm.... PRNewswire, hmmmmmmm, Kimsey Consultants (that paragon of objective market research) hmmmmmmmm. I will go on record and say that I will eat a floppy disk (disk de l'Antol) if any of these institutions use this stuff for ANY transaction processing, even by the year 2000. Just what we need, a bunch of NT Server in banks for disgruntled ex-employees to crack.
jww
(but what do I know, I'm not a technical person, my statements could never undermine the reputation NT Server has for rock solid stability, scalability, and security, no matter the computing environment). |
