the other day ibm lost a big contract and i mean really big and said that earnings would be helped next year. they priced this contract to bring in profits in the OUT years. services is ultra competitve and sun micro doens't have a great service operation. that was another miscalculation from mcnealy who didn't want services to hurt his HUGE margins back in the day.
