I found this interesting: biz.yahoo.com "`The conversation about servers has moved beyond raw compute power to flexible pricing models, support offerings that keep businesses up and running, and the ability to embrace new technologies,'' said Ann Livermore, president of HP's Business Customer Organization." Does that mean they'll give you one for free, and just as soon as they buy PWC, you can have consulting with it, too? Or does it just mean they've given up on trying to be top dog in performance? <g> JMHO.
