Check your own reality John. Left out of the analysis is IBM, which makes the whole exercise a little suspect. Anyway, this was not exactly a celebratory column. As in the last line: It seems that Sun will be the only holdout, the one company standing between Wintel and the notion of cross-platform computing. Scary, isn't it? As Microphobe in chief, I'd say it's scary indeed. Every computer in the world running the same bloated middleware OS- 27million lines, make that terminally obese- there's a lot of problems with that. Of course, since there's no ship date attached to NT5, the OS for the next millenium, I'd say it'll be a while before the fat lady sings. That won't prevent those who think arrogance is a good substitute for knowledge from crowing about the "inevitable" outcome. You get your reality from Microsoft PR, that's fine, but a mighty slippery reality indeed you're dealing with. Resistance may be futile; resistance must be offered. Cheers, Dan.
