i could be wrong, but i think these and other testimonials
pre-date the Apple ads. IBM has been building this area,
first in text, then .pdf, and now some video for several years.

i went looking for the "It Exists" video, but can't find on their
site (the search returns every error message on all systems
with the text 'it exists')...
I wish IBM would take all of the testimonials, other videos like
"i can do it" and "it exists", for all platforms, and put them
on continuous play in every major airport. It would beat watching
cnn tv over & over, and hit a very targeted market.
