But let’s get serious - Dell isn’t going to be running its order management system from some Web 2.0 SaaS startup - nor will e-Trade be hosting customer financial data in some “non-enterprise” way. People who don’t do enterprise development don’t understand enterprise development; there are a million blogs out there to prove this. An enterprise can lose more money in one day because of a system outage than the combined revenue of every SaaS / Web 2.0 company combined.
