Jim - re: CPQ does have the Tandem servers. CPQ actually has more exposure in the old DEC VMS base, which supported traditional business applications. The Tandem folks had the ability to lock down anything that went on their system in the name of high availability, but the VAX users could - and did - do pretty much what they wanted. I don't know how much exposure they will have on that front but I suspect it has at least been good business for the old DEC services organization. I would think that CPQ has the next biggest exposure behind IBM - after all, DEC was #2 in business computing during the heyday of all that 2-digit date COBOL programming.
