- Don't forget that in the geocentric world of 'trade journal' publications there
- is always an implicit 'NOVELL PC' in front of the word LAN. I think what you
- have here is a case of 'escape from MIS' eventually turning into 'running back
- to MIS screaming HELLLLLLP!', in other words: 'we got PCs on our desk so we
- wouldn't have to pay MIS for services and to feel we were managing our own
- systems but we didn't plan it properly and don't know how to run our systems
- and a salesperson told us this would solve all our problems and we listened to
- the salesperson instead of our own people so HEEELLLLLLLLPPP! (for free, of
- course).
