Will Global Services have to tell customers that when they recommend
xSeries that their rates may go up?

Now if they only would recommend the iSeries.

Insurer Considers Microsoft NT High-Risk

fairly reliable. It may also be more costly to insure against hack attacks.

hacker insurance, has begun charging its clients 5 percent to 15 percent
more if they use Microsoft's Windows NT software in their Internet
operations.
