I guess ever author of an article on the NT/Unix subject has their own opinion of NT vs Unix for the now and for the future. The article below comes from our own IFC here at Techstocks. Also, have you seen some of the recent comments by the CEO of SAP? He doesn't seem to have an overly positive opinion of Unix relative to NT.

What is the deal with this video clip of Courtney Smith "investment analyst" CNBC keeps showing? The guy's like "there's just too much risk. i'd invest my money someplace else. [other than msft]" Must CNBC continually participate in this kind of selective editorializing? I'm getting pretty tired of hearing these analysts persist in making content-free analysis of market or particular stock movement. Its irresponsible and, in my opinion, ethically corrupt.

It appears therefore that competition is alive and well. What's the beef? Sun was applauding the gov'ts. case today. If there system is so good what are they concerned about? I don't get the point you are trying to make.

Interesting, Cheryl. I guess MSFT knows how to handle this Unix vs. NT battle -- start filing anti-trust compliants against Sun and DEC. Maybe the DOJ will even force Sun to ship Windows NT with every copy of Solaris! -G- Life is so much easier when you know the proper and right course of action.
