IMHO, Having User Orgs step into the fray will be the major way we can get past the GUI wars and the FUD factors that the Iron Mongers are bogged down in. These vendors have a vested interest in "differentiating" themselves. Unfortunatly, they use OS's and GUI's instead of price, performance and interoperability. This is a self destructive illusion since it limits the success of the total Unix marketplace pie (and thus the size of the vendor's potential slice) as well as frustrates the users / developers. The real winner of a fragmented Unix enviornment then becomes DOS-Windows-OS/2, IBM and Microsoft :-( *************** You are free to use / edit / correct spelling this. It is my opinion and does not reflect the opinion of my employer. As a mater of fact, please do not put my employer's name in association of this opinion. You can refer to me as a manager of software development if need be.
