Toysoldier, >>The Network Computer (NC) solutions are not that popular in the real world yet because its true power will come when the Java technology has a critical mass of solutions, maturity, and industry accpetance arrives. This is getting real close. IBM is the biggest pusher of the Java drive in the industry. Their San Fransicso project is getting new partners involved every month.<< When do you see "critical mass" coming? in a few months a couple of years? after one blockbuster app is intro'd?? What is the San Francisco project? >>Once Pure Java business solutions begin showing up in more and more critical business solutions, the Network Computer will begin to flurish! MSFT knows this and we all know how aggressively they are trying to mutate Java so that this cannot happen.<< I don't even know of one. Could you mention one that has showed up in acritical business app? >> MSFT cannot stop easily is that IBM has an Iron grip on the largest fortune 100 organizations around the world. << I agree IBM is very strong that way. >> Think about it, if you wanted to know what the best overall IT direction of your company, who would go and ask - IBM or MSFT?<< I'd go to IBM , but that's just me. Many are venturing over to MSFT. >>(When my boss talks, people listen)<< Uh, ain't that E.F. Hutton?? stak
