I have talked with quite a few CIOs and have heard very favorable comments on NT.

Why don't you ask him how they like flying F14 fighter jets. DO THEY USE NT? DO THEY SUPPORT IT? They're clueless.

The "Nobody got fired for buying IBM/Microsoft" arguement applys here.

You see, a CIO of a Fortune 500 company does not want to be on the bleeding edge

When you're paid 300K plus you should know what is bleeding edge and what is not. These are the same clueless ones in 95 who didn't think the Internet was a big deal. Now it's e-commerce this, e-marketing this. It's sickening.

HEY POINT HAIRS. THIS IS WHERE INTERNET TIME HAS GONE. THE OPEN SOURCE MOVEMENT.

Ok, today I hate MS. Today I hate Outlook. THE CRAP DOESN"T WORK.

And while I'm in such a good mood, in Excel and other Microcrap products - How do I turn off this "auto insert text just because I typed it in before" feature. I HATE THAT FEATURE.

ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH

TG the Rat is up.

Since you have some marketing connections, why don't you get them to provide the feature:

"Never shows that stupid dancing paper clip again"
