Oh I love it!  Some news starved reporter is given a deadline, so
     he/she lurks the lists trying to find some story-line!
 
     Am I missing something here?  I don't recall anyone on this list
     "Putting HP on notice".  I'll be okay in a few minutes .... when I
     stop laughing so much.  I just love watching the press make such large
     issues over passing comments.
 
     Oh, BTW, my disclaimer/copyright notice follows:

It appears they quoted you in this article.
 
My opinion?  Sounds like HP9000 is the big seller.  HP3000 is not.
($600million of
the $1.2 billion).  Where would you put your efforts?  I have both 9000's and
3000's.  Love them both, but we're moving away from the 3000.
 
As my company's disclaimer notes, Its just my opinion (:  !
