jbn3...re"ibm/dell...your post to chuzz.."

"dismanting,dissolution,and elimination of a whole group...

i offer up with two names...GENERAL ELECTRIC and WESTINGHOUSE....

both not only decimated massive business groups/cost centers...but exited the primary business of the initial charter....from heavy industrial manufacturing to broadcasting/service..... the competitors eiher bought or picked up the market share...

ibm is following the same path...when one group within a corporation cannot identify the difference between an oem parts sale to an "internal" entity (ibm pc group) and "external" (dell)..then the overall corporation has issued the "orders", that each cost center on its own...just like a conglamorate...make money or be divested..same thinking.

as far as tradition...there is very little "electric" left in "general"!

good luck...ed a.
