Is this the end for Fluent?

Smith

There are a lot of postings on this forum in the style of - 'Which CFD code is best for this, that or the other application?'. It is my impression that the one code least likely to get an endorsement from the learned readership of this forum is Fluent (CFDRC & CFX seem to generate a lot more positive responses). Is there some sort of split appearing here between those who know (who wouldn't touch Fluent with a barge pole) and those who don't (who are suckered in by slick marketing and extravagant claims of success). Is Fluent the MS Windows of the CFD world with everyone else playing the part of various flavours of UNIX ?
