Comment What people are missing (MCSE...) (Score 1) 299
What many are missing is the fact that our fellow BOFHs have to learn _yet another_ OS.
There were a lot of MCPs for Win 95.
There are a lot of MCSEs for Win NT.
There are not as many MCSEs for Win 2k.
There are even less who can handle the innards of Win XP.
Training, and the inevitable learning curve (not to mention trying to figure out where and how to patch this new beast) will prove to be far far far more expensive than any silly upgrade cost.
Business people still can't see that one.
