Once again (sigh) .....

I just got out of my management meeting, they want to know if it can be done
the "other" way, with all companies sharing the core code.  I'm not exactly
sure on how I'd even begin to do this.  While I made a good point that A -
it's more secure, and B - it is the better way of doing things, they did
countered.  If we wanted to upgrade the software, it's better to upgrade one
single install, than to upgrade 50 - 100 clients which takes a large amount
of time.  It then becomes a logistical issue.  All that aside, would you
have any clue as to how would I go about starting something like that?  I'm
going to check the docs more closely, however, I am not confident that I
will find anything like that in there.
