HWP's internet business has been sluggish for a reason. It's the reason their server business has been sluggish and the rest of the company has been sluggish. The reason??? HPUX is a piece of junk. Their hardware is ok but the O/S isn't.

However, did anyone see that HWP's WWW server biz was sluggish in the past quarter? Hopefully...SUNW isn't gonna see the same weakness. I view that as a good thing. HWP's weakness is because SUNW is kicking their butt in that space, grabbing more share from them every qtr. Mark my words: HWP will soon abandon their money-losing 4th or 5th place server effort and shift their resources to where they'll do the most good, to their real center of competence and added value. Gimme a T, gimme an O, gimme a N, etc.... Regards, --QwikSand
