Hi Paul - Look what Sun's new Java API now does with a NT servers and
IBM Network Station.

Vendors roll out latest speech recognition software

From the article:
"...IBM's network computer-based speech technology is based on the company's ViaVoice technology and uses Sun Microsystems Inc.'s forthcoming Java API for speech to communicate between voice on a Windows NT server and IBM Network Station 1000 clients..."

=====================================================================

Look's to me that Sun's goal is to integrate all their technology together to obtain the best "enterprise" customer solution package.

In the above example Sun provides the core software JAVA interface, a software only solution. I suppose the configuration could have been built around a Sun Server and IBM Network Station clients if overall network performance was a factor for the customer.
