Forgive me for posting this but I feel quite emotional. I've just finished upgrading the last remaining client I had on Netware 4.11 SFTIII to 6.5. I think I'm going to miss 4.11

Could have been worse, you could have upgraded them to Windows :)

Would that have even counted as an upgrade then?

On a serious note I have one client with about 150 6.5 boxes and they are muttering about putting Windows in.
 
Tell them to treble their support staff before they start, be prepared to encounter every virus under the sun, and aim for 80% uptime a month :)

They did ask me if their hardware costs would increase, I giggled and then said I'll work out an estimate for you :)

I wish I could find the screenshot I used to have of a pair of SFTIII boxes that had been up for over 1500 days, they only got turned off when a nice shiny 6.5 box went in.

Oh, SFTIII.... I can't say i miss those servers, not after mirroring them the wrong way...Doh
