It doesnt really belong here but it was just to funny not to. MS claimed it was trying to prove to the world that NT and its SQL database was a solid, heavy load, workhorse.

I cant believe people can peddle this stuff and charge for it :) Chris -- "Linux... The choice of a GNUtered generation." ===================================| Open Systems Networking And Consulting.
