I agree about the small to medium servers being an area of incredible growth, but am interested to know if you know where such NT servers are actually managed outside of IT. We have moved completely to NT for our network services (and of course workstations) and we have a few NT servers for application servers (Unix, VMS and AS400 are where we run our mission critical apps). The whole domain naming, back up domain controllers, virtual drive mappings, roaming profiles, etc. is a very labor intensive process. From what you have said before, it looks like SQL server 7 is a very high quality product, but NT4.0 without active directory is still very cumbersome to maintain so the base OS is still not quite there yet even if the database is. If anyone is maintaining NT outside of the data center I'd be very interested to see how this works out.
