skeets: re Ingram

Reread what I wrote. "Direct sales are KILLING these guys". I'm not commenting on the folks DOING the direct sales, only that the Dell (and now GTW, et al) model is pretty bad news for resellers...

Ingram Micro markets microcomputer hardware, networking equipment, and software products to more than 100 thousand resellers.

If the resellers get killed off by direct sales... what happens to Ingram???
