The more I read these kinds of publications the more I'm convinced that this
is a brainwashing attempt by M$ directed to all those with MCSE certification
as their only quilification to call themselves IT professionals. What's with
this crap about 960 MB of ram and the abbreviation for megabytes as MG??
My SuSE personal edition handles 4 GB of ram out of the box for crying out
load. Frankly if pentiums didn't have a limit at 4 gb's I'm sure my end-user
version would handle more. and server "appliances"? - WTF!!! Come on M$,
are you Redmondians that desperate. I'm in health care for Pete's sake and I
can see through this crap like a freshly cleaned piece of glass. Any
executive that takes this as fact deserves what he/she gets. If a lay person
such as myself can see this supposed white paper as one of the more
ludicrious things to come out of the mouths of M$ and an executive fails to
see this - all I can tell them is "Can you say Cracker and DDoS"? Does down
time and security holes at an exorbinant price matter to the corporates?
Only if they have more than a dozen brain cells functioning I would guess!
