But I will totally agree with you if you're assuming even a local LAN application, much less an Internet based solution. Part of the reason being that, even on the distributed side, we try to minimize cost by buying a machine that is "just barely good enough" to get the work done. And management goes on "averages" not on "peak demand" measurements. Just like building maintenance. The west side of the building is too warm, the east side (where the vents are) is too cold. But "on average" (thermometer in center) the temperature is "just right". > > Best Regards > Thomas Berg > ___________________________________________________________________ > Thomas Berg Specialist zOS\RQM\IT Delivery SWEDBANK AB (Publ) > > -- This is clearly another case of too many mad scientists, and not enough hunchbacks.
