>MS always contends that cross platform capability is no longer an issue because of browsers. In short, they're challenging us to make our application browser based so that it runs anywhere. Java programs runs anywhere but it runs best if it is server-side, and for that matter, application should also be browser based.

Jess;
Yes, Microsoft would like everyone to have a "Browser Experience". Browsers are not "ready for prime time". Trying to run many types of applications through a browser has a number of limitations. Some types of applications will run fine but there are many issues that should be taken into consideration. Each browser and version will behave differently to issues such as security, printing, and behavior.
Would you mind explaining what a "stable Linux client is"?
