VOICE OF THE LITTLE GUYS

I recently looked at your site and found the editorial "Looking Forward" [Jan. 1, page 26, or at www.sdtimes.com/opinions /opinion.htm], which talks about development tools. I was disappointed to see the editors only mention the big players— some of which simply get mentioned because of their size.

For example, I've yet to run into an account that is using BE As Web Logic Workshop. Even IntelliJ (one of our competitors) wasn't mentioned, and I am quite sure they have more market share than Oracle JDe-veloper and Sun Java Studio combined. When we are able to get heads and demonstrate against any competitor, we do very well—but we're a smaller company with modest resources. We've briefed SD Times at least twice on NitroX. I know SD Times can't mention all small vendors, but it shouldn't ignore the smaller players altogether.

ACCURATE AND BALANCED

I enjoyed your Special Report "Real-Time Classics Prove They're Timeless" [Dec. 15, 2004, page 20, or at www .sdtimes.com/news/116/speciall .htm] on the history of realtime operating systems companies and the opportunities and challenges ahead.

Having been here at Wind for 14 years, I would say that it's a very accurate and balanced depiction of what has happened and what we still face as an organization. After all, I have lived most of it, so I should know.

Keep up the good work.
