Notwithstanding Reeve's point, which may or may not be correct about what
steals the messages, whaz-up-with-dis:

| Nothing was said that even hinted at the fact that this 'little
| box' can replace my four servers and that my four servers don't
| have to be running the same OS, the 'little box' can run more
| than one OS at the same time - that message would certainly have
| got IT directors asking questions.

That would be a technical way of looking at things.


| Then the ad should have been a little more forthcoming with
| information to ask questions about - basically all I got from the
| ad was IBM has a machine that is in a little box, which has the
| power of my four current servers.

That would be enough to get my attention, technical or otherwise.

Good message.  Which even YOU apparently got, Phil...!  (Apologies accepted
and given-in-advance.)
