RE: Explaining single level store to non i people

To me, all those alleged disadvantages to SLS seem like a trifle when
compared to
the problems that arise when one runs out of space on, say the "c:"
drive,
under Windows. Expansion of any DBMS, file systems, individual file,
and even disk clean-up operations are shut down.

Not sure I follow? Are you saying that adding drives to windows,
expanding file systems, or cleaning up disks require you to shut down?
That's simply not correct. You can expand drives or span file systems
across drives while live. Perhaps that is a limitation of XP, been a
while since I played w/it, but comparing a desktop OS to a server OS is
not fair.
