Nagano's network is history , it's Wibeldon's websites onward baby ! Holy Armonk , wing tipped Blue associated with the Grammys ? " ATLANTA -- When it comes to the Internet, forget everything you ever knew about IBM Corp. Members of its Atlanta-based Web development team are not the buttoned-down IBM workers of yesteryear. The 500-plus employees in the Telecommunications and Entertainment Division work in super-sleek offices decorated with bold artwork at workstations cluttered with personal belongings. To top it all off, they design Web sites for their clients on -- horrors -- Power Macs. "We joke that we have ambulances waiting right outside in case anyone has a coronary," says Jeff Ramminger, the engineer who heads up this most unusual division of IBM. The IBM team is responsible for some of the best event-oriented Web sites, including the Masters golf tournament and the Wimbledon, Australian and French Open tennis tournaments. In 1999, it'll add the Grammy awards and the Ryder Cup to its list of credits. It also is doing a Web site for Macy's with a Christmas theme. " statesman.com Those stodgy old IBM commercials were a prediction : " IBM , not just data but reality ! " - hey the PowerMacs have IBM inside . Jim K.
