I can't help but feel that many "apolloers" are disappointed and
fustrated customers, but I think those of us who got stuck with
the DN10000 feel the same way as you do.  I would say most of the
people involved with the DN10000 here are angry - it has been
an unreliable machine that a lot of meager resources were expended on.
As they say hindsight is better than foresight, and foresight does not
look good for HP here either.  


If I stop a minute and think about it, I guess we may feeled "burned"
but I has suffered from the DN10000 as well.  It's too bad someone
can't find the water to put out the fires.
