Now, I don't like to dispute the merits of Microsoft's technology. So let's say that those numbers are bona fide.

Now let's see a show of CIO hands who'd be willing to put their paychecks on the line to implement a real system expecting these numbers. Next, a show of senior engineers' hands who'd put their paychecks on the line to work on that project. Received on Fri Aug 09 1996 - 00:00:00 CEST
