Harry, since your first thought was all wrong what was your second thought, if any? You and Jules make a great team; best contrary indicators on IBM on this thread. (AIKTFS... and I know that for sure...) Now I will go back to sleep until you or Jules resurface with your IBM "wisdom".

Regards,

Don

Harry, I am considering a Thinkpad

and as most of you know, I F&^%ing HATE windows with a passion. No, HATE is too mild of a word.

But the Thinkpad feels right, and is built like a brick. If I have to drink cold gravy, I will only consider a Thinkpad cup.

You are right- IBM desktops will need to position their products out of Dell's way. What else is new, except it is now official? Dell's crap ain't that great that nobody can compete with them on any front. It will require that IBM Desktops and Portables keep their dancing shoes on- something they have been doing much better at lately.

Where have you been? Jules has been fighting this war all by his lonesome. Loads of bears have come and gone into hibernation. Jules fights on...and on.

In the long term he may be proved right. Of course we'll all be dead in the long term. Which comes first (death or IBM being a poor long term investment) is the question.
