    Or he _grasped_ it but simply thinks that you are _WRONG_.

    You appear to think that if one is not frothing at the mouth in a
    frenzy to buy into the latest Microsoft technospeak trend that they
    are trying to force everywhere, then one must be spoken down to as
    being slightly backward.

    The network (as web services) may be 'king' for _some_ uses. For other
    applications having a large central server, or a cluster of server
    blades, may be exactly the correct solution.
