Are you serious? I'll give you an honest chance to confrim that you think this is rational before objecting to its obvious irrationality!

I am absolutely serious.... If you contend that Fox is absolutely more flexible then all I really need to do is find 1 signficant example where it is not. At that point - you will need to rebut that point. If you cant rebut the point - you pretty much need to concede the argument. Keep in mind that I have a rather long list of things that would require rebuttal from you. In the end - your whole flexbility argument would be dismantled.

This is a database issue. Your requirement involved a WAN and a 10gb table, I didn't complain.

It is not a db issue - it is an app issue. I merely stated wan as a way to connect. But I'll tell you what - I'll take the wan requirement off the table. Just make it a regular lan.

Maybe, probably. But the wheels are turning and I could probably come up with a way around it. Otherwise you would win on this point too.

Seems like I am scoring a lot of points here...

The goal isn't to only accept requirements that I can win on, John. I'm interested in the truth. You're only interested in which of us can present the better case regardless of its bearing on the truth. (I suppose this is the major difference between a philosopher and lawyer, no?)

Law has a firm basis in logic - which is firmly rooted in philosphy. If you bring me an argument that I have to confront, I will take the swiftest approach I can to dismantle your argument. Understand that it was YOU who proferred this challenge. It is not my problem that you left the door wide open. If want the truth - I pretty much served it up for you...FoxData is not in any material respect - more flexible than Server Data.

Sorry Mike...
