Don, Hi!! RE: This makes the second time that they have entered and then exited Canada. The excuse that they used this time was that there were not enough "wealthy" Canadians to make it worth their while. Well, maybe they should have made some Canadians wealthy then they'd have had a client base! Maybe they should have recommended DELL years ago instead of touting CPQ. You make a very interesting point here...Credibility (which OT has been expousing for so long) is precisely their problem...With the information that is available today for even the folks that scored below 1400 in their SAT's.. :o) You would think that ML would have given up on pushing CPQ over DELL long before this recent "change of heart"... Not much snow here...One 8" snowfall last week...Drought really still occurring here...Hope ya had a great Holiday... Will always fondly recall the conversations we had in Austin... Don, interested in what DELL is anticipating selling in switches for the coming year... Best, Kemble
