I don't expect much consolidation on the server front except from a reduction of duplication as old lines become obsolete. Old lines become obsolete anyway so no difficulties for the customer here.

Do you expect the sales forces on the server front to be consolidated? Do you expect them to stop competing overnight on the day the merger is finalized? To smoothly begin emphasizing one line over the other? Or just to be able to easily explain how the two formerly competitive lines are today magically complemetary, appealing to two different types of customer? Or will the server lines become obsolete in 24 hours to be replaced with a new consolidated line that poses no problem?

Or do servers not matter anyway?
