Just to fuel the fire a little bit, I figured that I'd mention that I've
spent $200K on computers from Stardent over the last two years. I was a
zealot for Apollo machines, but the HP takeover (and an incredibly
inept salesman) prevented me from going into the DN10K systems.

If HP hadn't screwed up the whole program, perhaps they would've earned
my sales.

So far, these corporate giants have managed to ruin quite a few companies,
thank heaven I don't work for NCR, looks like AT&T is out to do the same
for them...
