Dell and Gateway were the companies I heard most often mentioned as MSPG's partner in the "business combination". In light of recent announcements, both of them appear to be going it on their own at least for the near future. I read a posting (on the MF board I think) that surmised that the new announcement to spend lots of money to spur organic growth was an indication that MSPG had been unable to strike a satisfactory partnership with anyone. In other words, a business combination is not going to happen soon. This sounds plausible to me, although "plausible" is not the same thing as "likely"!

Oleh mentioned Bell South as another possible suitor for MSPG and I too think this is "plausible". Oleh also wisely mentioned that "Rumors are just what they are". Take 'em FWIW.

Peace
Mr Bones
