Here is a comment from the following article: bizfn.com David likes the outlook for IBM (IBM 127 7/8) because they have top level management. They also have done an outstanding job turning around the company and are setting themselves up for good growth. Gerstner (IBM's CEO) has been bringing some of their core technologies to market sooner than previously planned. "IBM's service area is becoming a more important part of their business," says David. "Their services account for 30% of sales and that area is growing at an annual rate of 25%." He estimates IBM will earn $6.79 in 1999. Lou Gerstner is not a tech guy but look what he did with IBM. One of his most valued assets is he understands Wall St without question the worlds biggest pool of financial resources. And he did understand where the money at IBM would be made SERVICE. Del of course seems to be looking in that area for INPR so I've highlighted it for that reason. Now if only he would look at the stock or Wall St. aspect? TTOSBT
