Hi James, a good list of enterprise projects is here http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/userblogs/cincom/blogView?content=successes . The high-lights are JP Morgan, and Texas Instruments/Adventa. But also try and dig up stuff on OOCL's ISIS 2 shipping app and Deutche Bahn's schduling application (computes schedules for the entire German railway system). If you dig you'll find lots of enterprise applications written in Smalltalk. When I started working for ParcPlace Systems companies like JPMorgan didn't allow us to name then since using Smalltalk was such an important competitive advantage. That shot a lot of feet, indiscriminately amongst both corporate user and vendo aliker.
That's kind of fun. It reminds me the fisherman, who i met once on the lake, and when i said that i came here just for one day as a guest of my really far relatives, then he smiled and started saying everything about fishing, and saying that at his place, a fish catching goes like on conveyor, but for all people who passed by, he was making a bored face and saying that , ohhh.. no fish damn it.. no fish.. bad place, reaallyy bad one :)
it's great for the fisherman, but really bad for the bait shop... :) :( :/ best Eliot
