Dear Cheryl: All I know is this: When I read your posts I believe you, when I read Rudedogs posts, I believe him. Guess I am torn between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. The two of you will have to figure out who is which!! (gg) JDN

It seems reasonable that any business that can get its work done on a DELL or COMPAQ NT or LINUX or UNIX server will do so because they are so damned cheap. If their job mix is so complex that the above don't work well, they will have to bite the bullet and buy HP or Solaris servers or IBM mframes which are much more expensive. Of course, if the latest W2k benchmarks on slow Xeons are correct, then the internet will fall into Wintel's laps. I think Sun will have to collapse their margins to compete when the new silicon hits the street later in 2000.
