Rauf, can you post that again? I don't think everyone has seen it yet.
BTW, I thought you might like these stories as well.

BTW, what you posted was a Sun press release, not "the complete IDC report" as you suggest. Besides, market share for Q1 '98 is a little more relevant than for 1997. What's more, Sun is talking units while HWP is talking dollars. So your "stupid management team" simply picked different "bits and bytes" from an older report.
Perhaps, if you post it again, it will become meaningful.
Glad we could "get it straight".
