To avoid further flames:

I know damn good and well you Austin types don't wear ties; my quip
was directed at the REST of Big Blue.... my salescritters and
service people still wear the things.  The Austin project was probably
the best thing that ever happened to IBM.... I'd like to see more
where that came from.  Thus the remark -- if the upper-level people
would loosen up, they might come up with something Really Spectacular....
not that the '6000 isn't pretty impressive in its own right, for what
we want them for.....
