Re: Recommendations of webdevelopmentarchitecture/tool fordiverse i5 access...

<personal opinion>
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.

BINGO!!!! And you have to suspect an OS that says its multi-tasking,

You have to be suspect of a server where the highest priority task is the
one monitoring and dispatching messages for mouse movement... it goes
downhill from there ;-)
