RE: New COMMON Conference - GUI

End users typically use what their boss tells them to use. Let's take your
analogy a step further.

Let's say you go to work as a driver for a company who uses red trucks in
its delivery fleet. Perhaps you don't like the color red, and you would
prefer a blue truck. What do you think the boss would say to you?

To end users, GUI is much better then green screen. Perception is reality.
And any other clichés you can think of.

This leads to the questions:
What is the best way to create GUI screens?
CGIDEV?
Websphere?
ROA?
What is cheapest?
Best performance?
Easiest to program with?
Will be around for a while?
