"Tripping over a 30-year-old product line isn't particularly graceful as you
make your way down the aisle in a corporate marriage.

On the other hand, continuing to build your company's systems - and its
competitive future - around a 30-year-old product line in an era when
three-year product life cycles are the norm isn't exactly the most strategic
move many HP e3000 users could be making right now. However beloved
(remember the Wang VS?), the e3000 is a fossil."
