G'day Chris

What is MS (Microsoft?) Navision?

BTW, I haven't used PH with a client since July 2000 but I'm still here.  I
still keep up with a beta version to promote it to clients (not much
success) and keep my long-developed skills in order.  As a contractor I
never know when a good PH/Axiant gig might drop in my lap.  BI is more
lucrative though.

Without wishing to be overly cynical, I'd say those who've successfully 
moved on to pastures new wouldn't respond because they wouldn't keep up 
with this list. I don't think any conclusion can reasonably be drawn 
from the lack of response.

We're looking at buying MS Navision to do MIS this year. If that goes 
well, and does everything we want of it, I would see our Powerhouse apps 
moving towards 'legacy' status, and me abandoning this list and my 
Cognos annual subscription within 12-18 months.
