zc66: To follow up what u just posted, there is a pretty big 2 page ad in current issue of Business Week on 'Network computing'. It starts with this:
"If you look closely,you can almost see your competitors crying". {ther is a pic of an eye really close up).....and it goes on to say.. "Introducing Network Computing from Oracle.... Once your company begins the transformation to network computing,things will never be the same-for you or your competition.For starters, network computing costs are 39% less than a desktop computing environment. In addition to being able to use all your existing hardware, you'll reduce costs when it comes to network maintenance,software upgrades and technical support. With network computing,the critical information you company needs is dpendable,accessible,accurate.Always. All applications and data are stored on a professionally managed network,so you install software one time to get started; everyone is upgraded and updated instantly. Leaving you the opportunity to respond rapidly and itelligently to change. To implement new business proceedures from one central location.To expand your reach into markets and distribution channels you never had time to consider before. Network computing.It is real.It is available. It is remarkable. It is time."
