Timothy,

I agree you have made many valid points. Many times in my career I have
heard from various managers, do it quick and dirty, no time, no money. I
also have seen the IBM full court press on a customer, ending up causing
customer alienation. Part of the issue , IMHO, is that management folks
listen to cheaper is better as you pointed out it costs more also Timothy.

Everything isn't Java and Gui and push buttons.

Regards,
Scott
