Windows was never designed to be a multi user OS.  It's been
kludged/band-aided/duct taped to "look" like one and the general masses have
bought into it.  The mid-range line from the S/34 (and maybe earlier) was
built from the beginning to be a multi-user, multi-tasking system.  In my
experience over 80% (and thats very conservative IMEO) of "problems" in a
mixed environment of Windows and i5 interoperability/interfacing is caused
by an error in Windows (whether its SQL Server, Network File server,
Exchange server, et al) .  Yet, who do the majority of the users/management
blame or point the finger at you can bet it's not the Windows
techies/programmers.
