Don?t want to start a flamewar or get insulting to anyone.
Actually, I learned quite a bit from that thread.
Licensing (the SPM host, running concurring versions all
that) can be a bitchy thing and it?s shown that people here a
willing to help out - even if it?s distracting from their work.
To sum it up - it probably cost a quarter million bucks in
manhours (reading the posts, answering, maybe deleting them).
In the longrun it *could* save money and longhours thought.
Would be a shame if you?d unscubscribe but you?re free to do so...
Cheers
tim
