However, I rather resent being called "downright dishonest." Granted that Olsen clearly believes that the problem is TCP/IP, not any incompetence of the Ultrix group, remember that he sells a product -- Ultrix -- that includes support for networking. It would seem to me that the thrust of the quotation remains that Olsen is not serious about delivering the TCP/IP based Ultrix networking that DEC advertises. Phrased differently, I believe it fair to conclude that Olsen in fact has no confidence that his Ultrix group can deliver on DEC's marketing promises. Another quotation out of context from the same source: "VAX is VMS." This discussion is rapidly shifting away from topics of interest to the TCP-IP mailing list, and to ones more appropriate to INFO-VAX.
