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.

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

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