Night Writer ... Did Beckenbauer play in that Superbowl?<ggg>

I'm a soccer fan (former player) and also played baseball
after coming to US. Unfortunately, only followed some football.

Great strategy in football!

No... I don't remember.

Beckenbauer ... soccer player.

I believe the year was 1984. It was a play on the George Orwell story of the same name. MacIntosh against big brother (IBM). Great ad. People still remember it. For all: am new to SI. Long CPQ. I think the doom and gloom on the thread is a little overdone. Short term we may correct, but this is a company with vision. I suspect we will be very happy this time next year. I can only imagine the potential once DEC is folded in and this company covers all the bases.
