Nihil, You are right about NT not scaling, but we are seeing customers leave their big UNIX servers in place, but switching to NT on the client/desktop. Alot of our customers have large IBM wide nodes and large HP T and V series UNIX servers, and they are making them Y2K compliant (NT can't fill the large server roll yet 5000+ concurrent business/database users). But we see most of our customers dealing with the Y2K/NT 5.0 issue by putting all new PC's on the desktop now, and some have it planned for 99. Alot of the new desktops that we see going in are DELLS.
