DownSouth,>>>MSFT has a ways to go before enterprise level mission critical apps will be on NT--but it will happen.<<<

It could happen a lot sooner than later if we didn't live in such a hype-ladened society.

Most CIOs and the Techies that work for them are self absorbed and self important experts in minutia. They are always chasing the latest and hottest new paradigm. They don't have a clue as to what is really important - like helping the company earn a profit. What they want is a bigger budget, larger staff, and more stuff to explore, what they think is, leading edge technology.

The system that the Dryers developed cost virtually nothing when compared to what most CIOs spend for systems that have far less activity than this SI website. I would say that 99% of all enterprise level mission critical systems being developed in the world has less activity than this site. And I would bet that downtime for this website is far lower than most enterprise level mission critical systems.

Just a gut level feeling,

Mary
