@Joseph, actually I kind of fell sorry for you open code guys. Its a tough market out there with all the proprietary vendors and coders, and i hope I never have to sell software to make a living because we will be down this road once again. I think hardware is the best, all propreitary in many ways, the client decides what they want, buy it and everyone is happy. Software is another story altogether, more like who is better and why. It's like saying who is a better consultant, means you have to put down the other person to make your sales pitch. I don't know how software vendors do it in the real markets, but it must be really tough unless the clients know what they are looking for.
