Toy also happens to have a credible understanding of the technology behind the Novell vs. Microsoft Directory battle-- which is one of the more imporant future markets for Microsoft.

Several months ago, this board was full of prediction of Microsoft taking over the enterprise computing market and NT 5 blowing everyone away. I see nobody here predicting that anymore. Toy was one of the people who pointed out critical problems with NT 4 back then, not to mention the fact that businesses wouldn't wait for NT 5. Novell's current success is evidence that people are not waiting for NT 5/Windows 2000. It looks like Microsoft is going to have to share the directory market with Novell--which nobody would have believed a year ago, certainly not any of the bulls on this board. This was predicted by Toy months ago.
