Your ignorance is the only thing I've seen that could possibly eclipse your arrogance. You are either pitifully lonesome and bored or paid to post. Get a life.

> I wont tell you who I work for and at what scale but believe me, small computing envirnments like those suited for NT technology that you have only experienced is too small for what I am responsible for. I have worked on so many customer networking solutions (including airline, financial, transportation, agriculture, telecomm, etc.) that I cant list them like you just have. Toy, I am so impressed. Wow. Should I bow? Please leave the "mine is bigger than yours" crap at the door. > Once you have dealt with some real customer multi-vendor situations at large-scale level then give us a call. Toy, I hate to break this to you but NT is currently being used in many "real customer multi-vendor situations at large-scale level". So's Unix. So's Netware. The same could be said of many other operating systems. If you'd like to carry on an intelligent conversation instead of a one-way diatribe you're going to have to realize that the world is made up of shades of gray, not black (NT sux, d00d!) and white (NetWare 5 will save the world and make ice cubes to boot). - Eric

Dell has shifted their entire business to NT. If that isnt a litmus test I dont know what is. The sheer volume of ERP and SCM transactions dwarfs almost every other technology company as far as infrastructure demands (there are some CPG vendors, Coke, McDonalds etc with increased requirements but Dell is pretty dang intense).
