IMHO, NT is a badly designed bull shit. Now i am more than ever convinced on the future of Unix. I predict INTEL would be the hardware standard. And Linux/FreeBsd would be the software standard. Now my question is: If that is the way the world goes, What are all the companies who would be benefited by the raise of Linux/FreeBsd as software standard. thanks, -vs senthilkumar Let's not predict the future by looking into rear view mirror.
