[AccessD] OT: Microsoft CRM

Mark,

It would be bad news for Access developers if it worked as well as it is
hyped.  But you have used M$ products long enough to know that their
performance never matches their hype.

I haven't studied the price of this, I only know a little about this.
We've been working with this client for a long time and they like us,
but this looks like bad news for Access developers.
