Microsoft: NT Frying Pan on the Internet Stove.... Posted on THe MSFT SI thread and AOL MF..... Subject: Microsoft: NT Frying Pan on the Internet Stove.... Date: Thu, Nov 19, 1998 09:02 EST From: FKSmart Message-id: Remember that commercial against drugs: Picture of frying pan with an egg in it - the egg..."This is your brain." When the frying pan heats up - "This is your brain on drugs." Well lets call a spade a spade...... Corporate IT/IS execs have to be on drugs to bank their entire technology enterprise on NT going forward. As the power of Internet Wave 2 increases NT systems and the managers that support them will all be acting like they're on drugs. "This is the internet....." - the stove, the power etc. "This is NT....." - this little brittle frying pan.... "This is your enterprise..." - an egg drops into the NT frying pan. "This is your enterprise on drugs...." - the internet heating up with your beloeved enterprise "egg" in this not ready for Prime-Time little/brittle NT frying pan. ========================
