>>Yeah, like Windows (TM)....<< Poor argument, friend. If you can't get out of the MSFT OS vs "other OS" religious wars, then I believe you'll end up losing $$ as a result. fwiw...I'm 90% working on a UNIX OS environment. I don't have any attachment to any company, OS, standards, whatever. Whatever does the job or is required is good enough for me. I try to remember that computers work for me, period, not the other way around. I don't live for the sake of a "language" or OS. I partly say this working in a UNIX environment. A lot of us can see the writing on the wall and MSFT NT will be here in a few years. Some of the UNIX "gods" are so blind that they will have an epileptic seizure the day their UNIX boxes get taken away from them. You can't even mention the word NT with out their collar size expanding an extra inch or two. I can understand it somewhat in the computer junkie world, but to invest with this type of attitude will surely lose you some good $$.
