Yes. The problem is in tightly defining information functions such as "server". And this is particularly a problem for us who are categorized as being "Mainframe" people. Looking for a particular technology for server functions (or database functions, or whatever), is going to find particular technologies, whether or not those technologies are the best for our needs. A narrow focus makes management not see when their old Mainframe technology is not as expensive as they thought, especially with new privacy and security needs, and old reliability needs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
