Thanx again for the insight Mr. Lim, but Lotus has just raised thier
licensing costs.  Check your invoices for a ten user license and the 4 user
upgrade packs.  They have more than doubled.


I forgot to mention a product called Exclaim from QSP,
it is essentially Lotus/Excell/Quattro pro all rolled into
an X interface.  I havent used it but I had used thier previous
Lotus clone called Qcalc which was a Lotus 2.01 clone, it wasnt
bad, it had all the driver support tools for printing and terminals.
 We had migrated from Qcalc on a 3b2 to Lotus on 386 Unix.  I owe this
one to the QSP people to at least mention thier products.  One Lotus Clone
I do not recommend is Twin for Unix - it really sucked!

For those tuning in late we do not necessariliy mean to antagonize
any one vendor about not having a Unix product, but if we could draw
Lotus to reply it would be a weanie roast.

Note to hmmmm? forgot his name now, there was a note in my mail
about configuration tools.  Yes, there are a lot of sites who
may not be as technical as ours, but if one considers Unix on a
scale such as ours than having a staff of four people to support
1200 users is much better investment that the 50 it takes to support
our MVS boxes for the same number of users.  And since I am on
the net it makes it easier for those who dont have great unix skills
to hire me for some of those $$$$$ things.

Ok ill shut up for a few days now.
