myth.
history and the present is littered with Macs and PCs on the same network,
UNIX backends with non-UNIX frontends.
besides, systems that require less maintenance are a welcome thing. and a
multiplicity of systems means things like viruses and worms don't cripple
your entire enterprise.
or how about: the right tool for the right job.
the only people who benefit from homogenous networks are lazy and
under-educated sys admins and your vendor. if this is an issue for you then
i'd suggest your vendor can suck it up (what do you owe them?) and that your
sys admins should start working like they mean it or go back to driving taxis
or whatever it was they were doing before the dot com craze.
