Zeus, you still didn't answer my question. LOL Just for the record.. I have not been getting any of my information from people who hyped the resistors. DataPower's claims about the products are based on data from WWV. It is that company that Harris bought the rights to market from. To my knowledge nobody at WWV had anything to do with the previous ISSM Management. The technical specs come from John Perry (WWV) who designed/developed these products. I have a packet of information in hand about WWV and their products. I did not get this packet from DataPower. I see no claims on the DataPower website that do not match the material that WWV has published. I have talked to people in the industry about Mr. Perry. The feedback was all the same... he is known for being a straight shooter. I also know he holds a Top Secret Security Clearance. I can tell you from experience, they do a very thorough background check over a 15yr period of time before granting someone a TS. You have to have a flawless background in every respect. As far as existing customers? Well... I think you will be hearing about that too in the not so distant future. You can knock yourself out trying to convince people this is all hype coming from former ISSM Management... frankly, it makes anything you say less credible in my books. Deb'

BTW, Intel vs. DataPower products: I will be the first to admit Intel is a great company. A giant in their field. Like anything else, you would need to look for the application of the product. There are some differences between Intel and DataPower products. They each would fulfill a different requirement. 1. Intel does not have a notebook 2. Intel is software driven... DataPower products are hardware driven. What's the difference? Software driven: PC dependent. Because of the massive data to be processed, bogs down the microprocessor. As a way to limit demand on the computer, software compression only allows a small image. Hardware driven: Not PC dependent but can be used in a PC. If used in a PC, only for interfaces and display... allowing any application to run at full speed. Hardware compression allows for a larger image. Now based on that information, and given the following circumstances... which product do you think would be most desirable? A Dr. giving speech therapy to a child that stutters? Wouldn't they want the larger image? A business man that wants to monitor his business from his home? Would he want to tie up his PC at home for this? Or have to buy a PC? An Engineer that is trying to troubleshoot mechanical problem out in the field? Wouldn't he want the larger image? Two team members wanting to look and discuss a document during their videoconference? They would want the data to run at the faster speed. This is my environment. Integration Teams working together from all over the world. Many meetings are held by Videoconferencing, which includes sharing data. Many more would take place, but, it's just not cost effective to put software and cameras on every employee's PC. Nor is it cost effective to use a lot of facility space for several video conference rooms.I know in the past, I have had to go the telephone conference route because the videoconference room was already booked. We currently have a checkout system for laptops for people to take on travel. I can easily see the sense of adding Video notebooks to that inventory for employee's to check out for a Videoconference. Now before you people think I'm completely looney with my Dr. treating a stutter... read these interesting studies going on. There is also a follow up message board where people responded to this Dr. Many people were really excited about the idea of treatments by videoconferencing. Evidently the treatments have to happen several times a week, so they are looking at combining both face to face and videoconferencing. There were concerns.... expense of buying a PC, not knowing how to use a PC and not having the money to pay a monthly internet charge. Sounds like a great use of DataPower's POTS products.
