I still don't understand this. I've worked at a company where there was one way to do things. The CIO made lithographic announcements from on high. He was no Moses. One group of programmers was competing with Microsoft with an enterprise product, and they were forced to use the Microsoft product. So I have a bias against "ONE WAY" proponents.

You'll also notice I left that company a year and a half ago. Send money.

The point is, the kinds of people who think there is only one way to do things are going to do things that way. In the 70s, that was mainframe computing. In the 80s, some of them used LISP machines. In the 90s, lots of them hired MCSEs and used NT on servers. Others invested heavily in Java everywhere.

I'm not interested in working for a company that won't allow me to consider the alternatives and find the best option for the situation. (send money) I'm not really interested in evangelising those kinds of managers, either. You're welcome to try, but I haven't found them terribly receptive.
