Reginald,

From looking at some of your previous posts to SI it's obvious you eat, drink, sleep, and bleed Microsoft. Not that there is anything wrong with that! I'll never bet against MSFT myself. Does that mean I believe Plato or DSS or whatever it's called now will be a thorn in HYSL's side? Not at all.

In my opinion it's the classic build vs. buy debate. Corporations are looking to buy a total solution, which is what I believe we have in the HYSL offerings. That is not to say these offerings can't be tweaked - there will still be plenty of working for those consultants! (did everyone see today's Dilbert?)

I may be a bit biased because the clients I deal with are AS/400 shops, not NT shops. These clients do not want a free solution on NT running the analysis portion of their business.
