Matt,

Good anecdotal story!

>>but it is the trend that I am talking about.<<

What do you think has spurred the trend? Any idea, or
does nobody discuss that?

>>as he just got through this painful USRX merger and truly gaining
speed on competition. Mergers this large take resources away from day to day activities. I think this was a major reason for getting new COO on board so it doesn't happen again.<<

Interesting viewpoint. I remember reading an interview with
John Chambers (CSCO) last year, and they asked him what he thought
about the 3Com merger. His first reaction was that it was going
to be hard because of merging two separate corporate cultures
which were across the country from each other. He said
that was a major obstacle and felt sorry for Eric B.
