Michael, re: 22 hrs/wk in da tank...

From your article:

As for combining all the features in a single system, Intel cites statistics showing that there are 10 million conference rooms in the United States and employees spend 37 percent of their time in them.
. . .
TeamStation will list at $9,999 and is available now. The 384K-bps ISDN hardware upgrades will be available this summer starting at $3,499.


Only Intel can believe it's reasonable for employees to spend 37% of their time in conference rooms.

Only Intel has the cash to think $14,000 is fine for a phone and phone line.

Someone previously asked, "What are they (Intel) doing with all this x-tra R&D?" I can guess that they are all in conference rooms collaborating with each other.

Jeff

note 1 - I didn't realize that Intel had 10 million employees.
note 2 - 22hrs is 37% of a standard Intel 60 hr work week.
