Regarding NCs vs PCs... I thought that one of the great advantages that NCs were supposed to have over PCs was in system administration costs. Who cares if a PC costs $500, or $1000 or even $3000 if have to pay a system administrator $100,000 (loaded) to install and maintain software on the PCs. Wasn't there some study in the past year that said that the real cost of a PC including system administration was something like $5-10,000 per year? (I dont recall the actual number). Now, an NC would get all its applications over the net, so the system admin would only have to be done on the server, right? regards, Bill
