As an IT Regional Director for a Fortune 100 company with a professional career in technology and financial management spanning almost 20 years all I can do is sit in utter amazement at how Microsoft continues its relentless roll over not only its competitors but its customers as well. The single number one complaint I get from my user community concerns the lack of stability surrounding Microsoft Windows OS products when compared against the others mentioned previously. People in the business world are NOT interested in what is in the box, they just want the box to work and they want it to add to the bottom line, not act as a never-ending money pit. The design, implementation and acceptance of a true 32 bit OS by the professional community depends on the creation of true 32 bit software which genuinely exploits all of the hardware capabilities companies pay hard earned money for. I'd love to get email about this.
Life is so exciting.
