Re: LTO 7 availability date

[Alan Campin <alan0307d@xxxxxxxxx>]

Don't know if any of you remember Adam Osborne. He was a columnist who went
into hardware manufacturing and produced the first portable laptop running
CPM called the Osborne..

He was speaking at a conference and he told the audience that when someone
told you that something will be available the 4th quarter you always ask
which year. When he finished speaking he was taking questions from the
audience and someone asked him when this such and such was going to be
available for the Osborne and you said in the 4th quarter and this big
booming voice called out :"What year".
