Jeffrey, Thanks for the input. Noted that Willmott addressed this area in his summary of third quarter results: Zenith is making "improvements in its distribution and logistics systems".
Turning grandma, warts and all, into a sleek, energetic and wired generation xer sure ain't easy. We could bury her and profit only from her offspring (HDTV, SDTV, digital cable modems, VSBi royalties, Divx DVDs, satellite set-top boxes, NCTV set-top boxes) or keep her alive a couple more years when the transition is completed.
Like it or not, Zenith is stuck with grandma for awhile. A new, world-class CEO, a new Board of Directors and the commitment of every Zenith employee and dealer to deliver the highest quality services and to exceed customers'expectations sure wouldn't hurt either. |
