JP, Don't mix hardware and software in your WinTel vs. UNIX arguments as both software systems run on the same hardware. Remember that DELL will job the support to a UNIX expert so that only those that need support will have to pay for it. The X86 boxes will be phased out like the 8080s of old. Once the new programs need a different platform, and the old platform is not supported anymore, the market will be coerced into buying the new platform. As this software ages, and the new platforms fail to run the old software, the programmers will just move on to the new platform, dragging the market behind them. We will be able to continue to use out antiquated system to access the SI thread and follow the market though! JMHO, Ken
