They probably should stop concentrating on stuff like Bcentral and their
new Accounting ( Microsoft Great Plains ) solutions, and program a
better patch for their updates.

I guess being in every single niche has it's advantages - you don't care
really how many customers are pissed at you - there's always a plethora
more.

RE: Cumulative Patch for SQL Server (Q316333) Crtical for 2000

2002-10-04 Thread Dave Watts

 If Microsoft made an airplane would you fly in it?

No, probably not. On the other hand, I wouldn't feel too comfortable flying
the build-your-own-airplane kit from that Linus guy, either. Nor would I
want to fly Sun or Oracle, but that's OK, since I wouldn't be able to afford
the ticket. Sad to say, I'd probably end up flying the damn Mac - at least
the furnishings are nice.

To flip this on its head, I probably wouldn't use a GM or Ford computer or
OS, either - it would require huge amounts of gasoline, I'm sure, and would
have the best technology of 1987. My point here is that your comment, while
it may be glib and entertaining, is a facile and useless comparison.

 Then why run your business on it?

I'd hardly argue that Microsoft products are perfect, or even best-of-breed
in most cases. However, they often provide a happy medium of comparative
value. In any case, though, I suspect that most people on this list have
little choice about what products their companies or clients use.

I'd only fly Mac Airlines after the OS upgrade.  On older models, if someone
unhooks their seatbelt while the fasten seatbelt sign is, the plane quacks
at you, seizes up completely, and falls from the sky.  8^)

 No, probably not. On the other hand, I wouldn't feel too comfortable
flying
 the build-your-own-airplane kit from that Linus guy, either.

Build-your-own-airplane? That's an odd analogy. Have access to the engine
and all the working parts of the airplane I think is better analogy.

 Nor would I want to fly Sun or Oracle, but that's OK, since I wouldn't be
able to afford
 the ticket.

Sun and Oracle make rather solid products. I would feel much more
comfortable flying in a Sun airplane then a Microsoft airplane. Plus, since
Microsoft makes operating systems, keyboards, mice, game stations, office
software, and games - they are more likely to enter the airplane arena.

Who could afford the ticket? Try being a common developer (CTO). :)

 I'd hardly argue that Microsoft products are perfect, or even
best-of-breed
 in most cases. However, they often provide a happy medium of comparative
 value.

XP upgrade = $160.00
Red Hat 8.0 = Free

Yeah, I can totally see the return on investment.

 I suspect that most people on this list have little choice about what
products their
 companies or clients use.

No doubt there. If that were the case, we probably would be in such
financial trouble.



It was just a joke anyway.
