No - you inferred - that. I had no such intention.
You: "These things once set in motion are not that easy to change."

That's a clear implication that even though IBM said there would be a trade-up, that you don't think there will be. Even if you didn't intend it, that's how it could be interpreted and that's what I'm countering. If you didn't intend it that way, then my explanation should be fine. I mean, if you thought a trade-up was going to happen, you would simply agree with me.

Maybe there's just too many words. So here's a simple question, Jon: do you think there will be a trade-up option in April? Yes or no. No wavering, no equivocating, no reminiscing. Yes, or no.

"They said they would, I believe them, and now they've said it officially."

Where? I would love to have a reference I can point my customers to.

Rather than ask me on a mailing list, write to Todd Britton yourself, Jon. Tell him that you don't believe him, and get whatever you think is necessary for your customers. I'm not trying to convince you. I'm just telling the list the facts as told to me by IBM:

There will be a trade-up option. Details will be forthcoming in April.
