     I am writing a paper on IBM's (mis)adventures in the *home*
computer market, and highly value the opinions of the people on
this net. If you have any comments, brickbrats etc with regards
to this I invite you to email your esteemed opinions to me. 

     I have in mind all IBM PC offerings ranging from the
original IBM PC to the current PS/1. Besides opinions on the
machines themselves I would very much like to see perspectives on
IBM's effectiveness in advertising, marketing and engineering.
Any sales figures and/or dates are very welcome (I do not need
confidential information). And anything else.

     If you do not wish to be quoted please let me know. Thank
you.

Chris.
