Bad news has started. CompUSA is the first one to report slow PC sales.

Right Reg, MSFT sells software, very good Reg, you're right on the money... They sell personal productivity applications and a pseudo-OS called Windows. Their only real OS, NT, has yet to prove itself as a reliable server. Well, SUNW is in the business of selling solutions and they are far more successful with enterprise computing solutions than MSFT could ever hope for. The article I referred to bears this out. I suggest you read it, and maybe you'll learn something about enterprise computing customers and what kind of solutions they demand. Otherwise, you're just an accountant with a bias toward MSFT.
