" Marketing Blitz for Websphere"
                            If IBM wants me to use, It than someone needs to
come to my shop, and see what I do, and explain SPECIFICALY what Websphere
is, and how it will Help Me.
                           Every time an IBMer talks to me I here basically
the same thing."Websphere, delivers a rich application deployment
environment with application services that provide enhanced capabilities for
transaction management, as well as the security, performance, availability,
connectivity, and scalability "
                             That's fine But what do I do with it?  I
learned Programming on my own, So my knowledge base is quit specific. I know
what I need to know. If I need something new , than I sit down and  learn
it. That Sales speak doesn't tell me how , or why, that will help us get
Cloth made, counted and shipped out the back door.
