I don't know what their DB2 numbers were like for Q1...

As far as I understand, it's fastest growing but also smallest segment from IBM.

IBM's been one on my shopping list for a long time. As long as IBM is too comfortable and slow to changes, I won't buy it. For example, both IBM and ORCL had similar email problems last yr. ORCL took a chance and scraped its own system and got over with it. Market punished ORCL for short term , but appreciates ORCL for long term.

Both IBM and ORCL got lucky when tide changed to internet from pc. Biggest difference btn ORCL and IBM is that IBM is too comfortable and ORCL is always on tip toes - Always paranoid and I love it!

later,
