3) It is in Sun's best interest to have a very weak client with very strong servers. This is not a truly web-centric model. I want client to be functional, just not tied to any particular desktop. I'm sorry. I missunderstood what you were saying earlier about WinCE. You were just supposing the internal politics. I'm here to tell you that it's not the case with T and M$/WinCE. SUNW has multiple 'suite' strategies. They've got the small footprint suite and now (apparently) a client side Java suite (Star). Perhaps there is a tie-in with a new thin client desktop solution. The timing of your product is killer. Congratulations on your future success. -JCJ
