You are right so far as JP ,  However,   The new pricing model(below
somewhere)
may change Corp mind set( its down below somewhere)

I think Lief said something about "Until users get their credit card
stolen...."
I thought it was hilarious that one hacker who was recently sentenced,
Sent
Bill Gates a case of Viagra  using Bill's own credit card number he stole.

Now do you think Bill G.  Related the fact that his credit card was stolen
with the swiss cheese NT security?

Nah,   You are probably right,    Consumers aren't that smart.

QUOTE OF THE DAY:

"Wake up, open-source community. The battle is not for the
desk-top; it is not for the server; it is not for the
operating system; it is not for the development environment;
it is not about the GNU General Public License (GPL) vs.
Microsoft's business model. The battle is primarily about who
will control user-authentication services."

-- The Open Source columnist Nicholas Petreley issues a
rallying call.
