Agree that this will mean real competition to IBM. It's the overall fundamentals of the sector. Some say there is no capital investment cycle any more with respect to IT equipment. Don't know for sure, but there are warning signs beginning to show up. I think the merger makes sense, just not sure it's time to buy it. I won't back the truck up on any stock until this market has corrected (read plunged), not dipped.

I'm not particularly fond of Wintel's garbage or IBM either, but don't have a choice. Business wise I hope CPQ-DEC makes some real inroads!

Sprint couldn't bill me correctly for the plan I chose in Missouri. I fought and I fought with them. Wound up getting about $250 worth of credits then I switched to AT&T. 2 hrs free long distance each month for the rest of the year. Call anywhere in the states, anytime for $0.10 for 4.95 and they waived the 4.95 for the first 6 months. Sprint called and asked why I told them how dissatisfied I was. Tried to get somebody in our office interested in investigating them, but I couldn't. Prices ought to be dropping more. There are thieves and there are telco providers ...
