I am building a portfolio of arguments to potential clients on why they 
should consider new (to them) alternatives in software/system decisions.

This piece will fit in very nicely to that portfolio.  I started the 
collection with the Ernie Ball story and how they got whacked by the SBA.

Imagine the cost to IT departments of keeping up with the 
worm-hole-of-the-month with the freshly purchased Wxp.  I think business is 
ready to forego lots of new features for some  good old security and 
stability.

Good points about the politicians with their hands in the $$$$$-bowls.  
Voting with dollars is the way to go.  

Thanks for the fwd.

Make clockwise circles on the floor with your right foot; now, without 
looking at your foot, use the index finger on your right hand to draw the 
number "6" in the air
