Ork:

This IBM scam really has me hot. I fully intend to get the behind-the-scenes B.S. into the press. I have no doubt that their buy-back programme is working full tilt this morning. To give them their due, it takes some kind of chutzpah or maybe one would better label it arrogance (we're IBM,..... nobody would dare question our accounting) to pull this kind of stunt. By the way, note the after-the-earnings-release expansion of the write-down...... unbelievable! I can just see old Louis leaning over his desk with a small smile as he tells Sam, "See,.... I told you they wouldn't question it".

Best, Earlie
