Re: "I would like to point out that Sun's ONLY competitors in the server market continue to be HP & IBM." I'm sure you would like to point that out but it isn't true. I have seen many many Compaq servers in financial institutions (my company installed a good deal of them) doing what Sun servers were doing just a couple of years ago. They are running Windows NT and doing a great job. In fact I have been privy to witnessing some fairly substantial outages at certain brokerages recently and I can tell you that there are some unhappy Sun customers out there. Cheryl, what is your occupation/specialisation? I am intrigued because I can't understand where your views come from. I know I have asked this before but you don't seem to want to answer. It really would help to judge the credibility that your posts can be given (cos the accuracy of their content doesn't help much).
