I agree with you there. I have this exact same discussion with my manager who is a die-hard UNIX biggot. I love unix (Sun Solaris anyway) but the Windows OS has a few things that I like better. I have a NT4 box and Solaris 2.6 box on my desk and I have the best of both worlds. NT is becoming very popular and I hate to say this but I think UNIX is on it's way out. The statistics of all the comanies changing over are revealing this uncomfortable (for me) fact.

Can't we all just get along? he he

Ryan, a somewhat UNIX biggot with a love for NT as well.
