- Ironically what I think might be a good combination is Java on
- the client and MS iis as the Server because iis has a good API,
- it can handle database connectivity easily, and NT makes a very
- good Web/Database Server. Java being intrinsically portable makes
- a perfect client side tool. Cafe is starting to look pretty
- good. That scenario would mean people could use VB4 or Delphi or
- Java or C++ to write the server side, and the client side would
- just be a browser with a fast Java engine. So it's not a Bill
- Gates issue, everybody can play.
