SAP AG, a German ERP vendor, is trying 
to be "all things to all people", just like "open software" -- they're 
failing miserably, especially in the retail sector.  They now run on
multiple 
platforms, most of them poorly except for the mainframe for which the 
programs were originally written.

Dean,

Thought you might like to know that SAP R/3 was originally written for a
platform known as Silverlake.  Seems Silverlake didn't have enough
horsepower to run a large 3-tier client/server application back then.

Regards,
Stan
