<< Actually, Linux is a far greater threat to the various proprietary flavors of Unix than it is to NT. Why run Solaris or other versions when Linux is available? >> Not true. Linux is a threat because it runs on Intel hardware. Sun, HP, etc. don't really generate revenues from the lower end of the UNIX market, the stuff that runs on PCs. Linux is a threat to Windows 98/NT strictly because it is free, cheap, runs on existing (inexpensive) hardware, and is stable and reliable. Mike
