Hi Saturn, RE: "The history of computer company mergers is not great !"

That was my first thought too.

My second thought was, okay, Dell wins the desktop market (and possibly the low-end Servers), HP gets an opportunity to win the Server market, and Sun is squeezed. Intel wins in each category, along with the respective leaders.

(Side note, the merger makes the Alpha sale look obvious.)

I remember a post about HP being second best in several product categories. HP now has first place in a lot of product categories.

Regards,
Amy J
