Wasn't that how the Apple deal was put together? With a call to

JL, in addition to the legal might IBM would bring to the
table for defending the patents, you would also have a
huge marketing and sales organization well equipt to
fully exploit the DST product line, and of course the
obvious synergy with KM.

In a perfect world, Ampex would do it all themselves and
the share price would rocket... but I am not so sure they
can. It would be nice to see KM validated in the end, even
if I dont get rich off of it.
