Not only doesn't Microsoft's site work as advertised, an Intel processor can't handle the workload. "Houston-based Compaq, a long standing partner with Microsoft on Win NT solutions, is supplying hardware for the powerful website with its 64-bit AlphaServer 8400 system." It amazes me that I so often hear that WINTEL will replace the mainframe any minute now. I have been hearing that the mainframe is dead for years. Scott
