Re: ISA server

[Matt Burnett <marukka () mac com>]

Because it is intergrated with their other products. And if you are
considering ISA then 99% of the time all ready running multiple IIS boxes,
exchange boxes, etc and adding one more M$ product wont really matter. And
also no matter what product you use, people will find a way to hack it.
People will also always go after the largest/most popular vendor. Antiflame
statement: im a hardcore mac guy (Apple IIe was the first box I used), no I
don¹t like M$, and hate having to stick up for them.


 And also no matter what product you use, people will find a way to hack it.
Antiflame statement, I am a hardcore mac guy and really don¹t like to stick
up for M$, but no matter how bad anyones programmers are people will always
go after the most popular product.
