I can't answer your question. My husband is not an engineer but he works with very talented technical people. And one thing I know for sure: they do not live in the past. His research, although narrowly focused, looks towards the future so he has to know a great deal about the present and the past.

He might respond to your question. And then again, he might not because he didn't want to take the time to respond the other night.

I know he believes that there will always, always be the need for high-end UNIX.

He uses LINUX on his PC, but he would never dream of using his PC and LINUX to run major research projects.

Also, we have had so many, many terrible experiences with MSFT products that I do not believe he would ever use NT, and he has not heard that NT is a quality product, although it may be more stable than Windows 95.
