Hi all, Once upon a time a linux wizard in an unnamed kingdom decided to use Linux for running a J2EE app server that the kingdom needed to manage its time. However, the evil warlords who ruled there decided to scrape his plans, and chose to use W2K boxen instead. This is a story of the Evil and Doom the beset the kingdom when they walked the Evil Path! ;-)
Jokes aside: This is an interview with webmaster Joe Sechman, who recounts the tale and how the unnamed company is now coming round and is perhaps getting ready to embrace a FLOSS based solution. "One of the reasons -- probably the biggest reason -- was that my Linux experience was not certified. Secondly, the execs were afraid of the word 'free.' Coming from the proprietary world, they perceived 'free' to mean inferior." - Joe Sechman "The biggest problem with our current implementation (W2K-based) is a lack of time to fully understand and support our solution. It contains more bells than Santa's sleigh! We've also had intermittent problems with Win2000 OS stability and unpredictability while applying service packs." - Joe Sechman URL: http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/qna/0,289202,sid39_gci886021,00.html --indra. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
