>>"that popular word processing software that you been using as a >> standard in your company does not work on my machine" As long as NCs comform to Oracle NC reference profile, they should be interoperable. NC from diferent venders should be able to boot from different servers running on TCP/IP network. That is exactly the problem PC created. Even the SAME PC with different OSs would not run the SAME application. or the same word document would not be able to open in different platform. NC running java comes into place to solve that problem. Would your house refrigerator be able to hook up to PG&E's electric power only?!!! If your electric company upgrades the power network, Would you need to dump your refrigerator and buy a new one?!!! I see the computer industry is going into that model as well with NC being the universal software appliance. My point is software is going to be able to distribute through multiple channels not persistant in your local storage which will greatly improve your computing power and flexibility, making NC a powerful software consuming device.
