OK. But what is your recommendation to a fortune 500
company? :)

Are you trying to say that a dumb idea is less dumb if it's
a FORTUNE 500's dumb idea? So, by extension is a dumb
idea even less dumb if it's a FORTUNE 100's dumb idea?
What if The Pope has a dumb idea? Or perhaps if The President
has a dumb idea?(*)

You know what? I think remote GUI administration using
a bloated bucket of crap like X windows is a dumb idea
no matter whose it is.
