That's absolutely true. I must admit my point of view when it comes to 
enterprise is more in the area of large distributed system.. Like for 
example Deutsche Bank trading systems are all J2EE based, and 
*unfortunatly* initially based on weblogic 5.x. *arg*.... I won't tell 
you how much suffering that pile of [CENSORED] brought me *sigh* But for 
that kind of mission critical systems, there's no comparison between 
weblogic 6.x and JBoss 2.4. Part of the system has requirements that 
almost aproach real time, and any downtime cost them ALOT of money... 
and when i say ALOT, i really mean ALOT  *grin*

But like you said, it is really a question of what are the requirements. 
The requirements of a major investment bank or a telecom are not the 
same as a mom-and-pop ISP. However I still find the award as pushing too 
much the message that JBoss is the wonder thing that does everything all 
other app servers do.
