>>>Is their any advantage to buying the NC? Plenty. Most of them relate to cost-of-ownership. Fat Clients have lots of hidden costs which never seem to be accounted for by PC enthusiasts. However, I believe that IS managers are smarter than that. They know how much their PC's cost on a per seat basis. That is the bottom line the NC will need to beat, and I believe that it will. Think about it. When you go to buy a car you don't consider the sticker price minus your BIG discount the dealer promises you as the total cost of the car, do you? Of course not, all the back-end costs of owning & operating the car could make you change your mind about what car to buy & how much to spend. With this in mind, you could look at the typical PC as your basic Fiat & the NC as your basic Honda (yeah... Fix It Again, Tony). cheers cherylw
