Jim,

Glad I could get you to jump in :-) You have added good information. I refered 
to them in the
light of a PC company based on the stated fact that PC represent HALF of 
Compaq's business. I know
that means some other things are in the other 50% but when PC's are bleeding 
the bottom line, that
really takes away from a LOT :-)

And I heard this morning that the editor of Computer World is questioning this 
move as is the head
of the MIT Computer Lab...

It will be interesting...

Chuck
