As a user of a mixed NT/Linux environment, the decision to drop Win32 is a bit of a bummer for me and my employers. We're now left with IIS and maybe Apache. But the group's logic makes sense, especially the part about having a miniscule user base in the Win32 world, and that situation continuing into the future. As I said we are also getting into Linux, so we'll be looking for you all there... -- Mark Hubbard: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Microsoft Certified Professional
