The NT advantage
Lantimes has an interesting
article
about the problem with Unix: it has many technical advantages which please
the engineers (people who do things), but confuse the suits (people who make poor
decisions). While NT probably is easier to set up and involves cheaper
sys-admins, it's your base T-model. Interestingly that's what it's being
used for: a replacement for NetWare, printer and email servers, but not web
servers. In essence, Unixes need to stress simplicity by providing a very
simple cross-OS consistent intuitive GUI interface for inexperienced sys-admins
and address the suits' level of understanding.
How do you think Suits can be persuaded that NT is still wet behind the ears,
and will take 20 years to mature to Unix's level of scalability and security?
