Jack of all trades and master of none.[Story of CPQ,HP,IBM...] Jack: It seems to me that CPQ/IBM/HP et al are trying to emulate DELL by going in all directions, I see them loosing focus. First they tried 'channels',then they want to get into BTO,now they want to use a third party to do the box-making for them,what would they do next. Looks like these people are in disarray and don't seem to know what exactly to do to emulate DELL's growth and profitability.It ain't 'gonna' happen any time soon in my opinion.May be they should try sub-zero segment,next.<VBG> PS:IBM lost only some 300 million in 97 in their PC segment.
