Well, hehe, I'm not sure I'd agree with that. In the past few client meetings I've had, and at other consulting sites, I've brought up the MS commercials. I asked 'em "Did you understand it?" They generally replied, "No. I can't make sense out of it." To which I reply, "And you think you'd want to base your business on software written by such a company?" At which point they fall silent. Then Linux gets some play. Of course commercials and software are completely different. However, to the PHB's out there, it's all jumbled together. So those commercials probably opened the eyes of some of these PHB's and they're starting to understand why they need to move off MS. -Charlie _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
