  Not only is there silence for that question, but also the
  question of why would millions of informed consumers buy
  an inferior product.  Why are they doing it right now?
  NT is not the equal to Linux or OS/2 or Solaris or
  Novell or . . .
  
  The Aberdeen Group, the Standish Group, and others concur
  that NT is not ready for prime time. So why is it
  advancing in market share as fast as it is? Why are all
  these supposedly astute, technologically-inclined
  business people gambling on inferior technology to run
  their businesses?  Why?
  
  The answer to both of these questions are the same.
