We are often called bigots because we cling to our toys with such zeal and guard our Guardian of data with barbs easily tossed to those lesser platforms and practitioners of that-which-is Fault-INTolerant. Just as TNS I became TNS II...then TXP...and we all proudly proclaimed our place by the version of Guardian 90 with which we were baptized into the realm of MTBF and Fault-Tolerance. We must also balance our security of systems with the need for change and the high-speed world of business. Itanium, Dual Core, C++, J2EE are all equally terrifying for those of us from the B-series systems, but if we don't adapt and keep up then we should resign to the easy chair and the remote control pining about the 'good old days.' As long as HP keeps it's wits and NonStop humming, I'll hold on for the ride. Cheers!
