As a Mac and DOS and Unix and soon an HP3000 user it is good to see that Macs
are being used elsewhere in a client server environment. Though Macs are
loosing both mind and market share, they still are a powerful and
intuitive computing solution. This said, after a weekend of trying to
help my sister get her new Windows '95 PC fully up and running! While I
really liked much of what I saw, at least in terms of ease of setup and
software installation, Win '95 is still way short of the Mac.
I suppose this must sound similar to the way that HP3000 and AS/400 users
knock Unix. In my case, though I Mac user (along with the other platforms
and OSs mentioned above - in fact I use Unix the most) I try not to be a
Mac SNOB, as is so often the case with Mac people.
As to your reference below, at both DB Expo and the Software Developers
Conference held recently in San Francisco, a company whose booth said
"Simba" exhibited. Though not certain, I think it very likely that this
is the same company you refer to as "Simba Technologies Inc." Assuming
that is so, the please note:
The Simba whose booth I visited specialized in ALL SORTS of ODBC
CONNCETIVITY, not just Mac ODBC connectivity. Just thought I try to set
the record straight.
