Justin,

>>Yeah, soon NT7sp45 will give us all the functionality, stability, and resilience of Unix.

We were laughing about WindowsNT at lunch last week with a real OS guru who explained Windows "clustering" ability which is affectionately known as ActiveClusterF**k.

What can WindowsNT offer us tomorrow what Unix cannot offer us today?

Cheers,

Norm

It is the same argument. I agree Unix has
some great advantages. But your asking the
wrong questions. NT like Windows is the most
widely accepted standard; something business
and personal users demand. That is what MSFT
does so well. I really like the Callaway Great
Big Bertha, but will it shave strokes off my
golf game? For $600, I doubt it.
