End-user IS departments are increasingly building heterogeneous computer environments that combine legacy systems with Unix and Windows NT.

Nonetheless, many IS departments, attracted by the lower costs and simplified maintenance characteristics of NT applications servers, are scrambling to integrate NT into their environments.
