New PC line arrives , IBM also to market UNIX type products Believe this was 1st set for 2/7/00 , but then again MSFT was supposed to settle around that date ;>) Should cause the rest of Wall Street's Big Boys to come home to IBM stock and forget that Y2K stuff: " IBM will today announce NetVista PCs, a new PC lineup featuring matte-black designs and LCD displays, 256-bit encryption and wireless network capabilities. The PCs are part of IBM's EoN, or "edge of network" initiative. Under the EoN plan, IBM will market itself more aggressively as a provider of the full panoply of technology products and services. Customers, ideally, won't buy generic desktops in the future. Instead, they will buy clients optimized for a larger network function or application that was also designed by IBM, the company hopes. Four models will kick off the new line, called NetVista: an all-in-one model, built around a LCD display; a so-called "legacy free" design, without serial and parallel connectors; a network Internet appliance, such as the one recently adopted by Fidelity Investments; and a network computer attached to a LCD display. " yahoo.cnet.com Don't forget about dem apples . IBM and AAPL should benefit most from a MSFT settlement. Oh UNIX , IBM has established a new marketing sales force to sell UNIX OS based products. Sure can't be IBM's AIX. Has to be a new UNIX OS . LINUX isn't new so whose OS could it be ? Jim K.
