Come on Tom. Quit picking on a defenseless competitor like BEA. The real battle Jack should be talking to you about is how you plan to capture mid-market growth. Microsoft is your only real competitor. You guys are so wrapped up in your large enterprise cocoon that you are mid-market clueless. You are going to have to do a lot better than WebSphere Express and the currently lame WebSphere Partnerworld initiative to make anyone aware that you even play in the mid-market. |
