'But when you added all the problems together and you then added in the fact that the Sybase problem reappeared. That really clouded everything, that Sybase problem, it really did, because the system was crashing all the time for a few weeks, and users don't differentiate between a Sybase problem and an application problem, but the Sybase server was just crashing all the time. We were at a loss at one stage. The ironic thing is that for the last two or three months when we've been working on the Unix migration it's crashed once. You just wouldn't believe that. Sybase can't give you an explanation. Sybase have been giving us lots of free consultancy, because they're obviously scared stiff of us ditching the whole thing, and they cannot explain why it's not crashing now, but we haven't done anything to it. ... It's the weirdest thing.'X060 page 001.02c (tape 01.1.02c) Gordan Notes/Tape 14/10/94
