I know of 4 packages that are going to be victims where the users
don't
have a clue they have MSDE. Granted they companies that put them out
may present updates. These were all in support products for mfg apps
that I saw at Parker Hydraulics. From the EM I could see these MSDE
servers but I know that the users had no idea they were even installed
on the XP workstations.
I noticed that they didn't say that the existing products won't
work; only that they won't be supported. They say that customers
"should consider" upgrading.
Sounds to me like they're trying to scare people into contributing
more to Microsoft's upgrade revenue stream.
