Quad, This Chicago Merc article was a great story! Those are the things you want to here and I am confident we will hear more as MSFT trips all over itself trying to rush NT5 out the door over the next 12 months. As for this Mindcraft stuff, I haven't heard anything about this article, but, with that being said, most smart people dont want to hear about "Speeds and Feeds" comparisons anymore. Afterall, it was MSFT that successfully turned File&Print services into a commodity (even though IT IS NOT!). If MSFT so strong is convinced that this is a commodity then why are they getting groups like MindCraft to corrupt server comparisons like Mindcraft quite obviously has? Maybe MSFT is getting wrapped up in their own web of lies and FUD! IT Directors (with brains) will ignore FUD and media pide-piper stories and will loook at which technology best solves real life problems - like TCO! Toy
