Do you know what they sell Zips to OEM's for now?

Ahhhhh, Reseller, ..... the good ol' days, eh?

Sitting here with a fire crackling, a strong & hot cup of coffee, watching the the moon set and the day dawn -- good time for a little IOM reflection.

Remember how when those first OEM's came along all the bears were grunting on and on about how DELL and GW2K would never come on board?

How to even think of, let alone mention, a CMPQ OEM was sheer lunacy?

How no real company (and no way a big corporation!) would ever allow the iomg techie toys into their hallowed halls (they had real business to conduct and would wait for a real machine like the LS 120 (due out just about anytime now) or syqt's next wonder, or perhaps something beamed in from the Mother Ship .... just about anything but the toys from Roy.

Ahhhhh....... the good ol' days.

Haven't had time to read through yesterday's posts. From a quick glance at the box scores it looks like it was a pretty boring and non-eventful day for those who watched the ticks crawl across the screen all day. My energies are focused on coaxing aother powder dump from the ever fickle snow gods. IOM has a solid history of taking care of itself without me having to worry about every wart on wanna-be competitors noses. Ya'll keep as close as eye on things as you feel you need to. I'm going skiing.
