I Just Think We Should

I Firmly Believe That Ibm's Size Can Be Used To Its Advantage.

My Parents Worked Enormously Hard To Put Four Children Through College. We Didn't Have A Lot Of Money.

If Ceo Compensation Was Performance-driven, Which I Believe It Was In Ibm's Case, Nobody Would Ever Argue. If The Shareholders Didn't Make Billions And Billions Of Dollars, I Wouldn't Make Millions Of Dollars. My Salary Was The Same For 10 Years. It Was All Performance-based.

This Really Is A Merger Of Equals. I Wouldn't Have Come Back To Work For Anything Less Than This Fantastic Opportunity. This Lets Me Combine My Two Great Loves - Technology And Biscuits.

The Fundamental Issue Is: In The World Of The Internet, Is There A Place For A Packager Of Services? Does The Customer Want To Go Surf The Net And Go To Every One Of 50,000 Web Sites? Or Will People Pay A Reasonable Amount For Somebody To Go Out And Preselect And Package What They Want? My Guess Is They Will Both Coexist.
