Post #67,929 by dmarker 12/10/02 7:41:52 PM Reply	Re: Off beam - lets be fair about this Can you show where IBM failed to meet its finacial targets for its Lotus products. The company took notes from 100,000 seats to over 1,000,000 seats in about 3-4 years. That seems to me to be a very successful aquisition (you do realise that IBM was primarily after 'notes' - if not then read Lou Gerstner's book published recently where he states the reason for the Lotus buyout and the effect it had on IBM's bottom line). Cheers Doug Marker

Post #68,501 by dmarker 12/12/02 9:42:41 PM Reply	Re: CRC - please accept my appology - was a trick used to tease Mike in the War on terrorism thread where we are beating each other's brains out over him accusing me of spreading 'Chinese wispers'. As you can now see I have posted my former pic (stopped using it about 30 months ago). So in case anyone is wondering about you ref to me being 'cute' I had used Miss HK 2000's pic & left it up for 2 days. Yes that was naughty & I am guilty. Cheers Doug

Post #68,508 by dmarker 12/12/02 9:49:29 PM Reply	Re: She does me too :-) As you have probably gather from other posts I used the pic while at war with Mike in the Terrorism thread, Thought I would tease him a bit. Not sure if it woked but it did reply back with a lead in of Kissykissy so maybe it did trigger a reaction <grin> Anyway as already stated that was Miss HK 2000 Cheers Doug
