Denys, I can't understand why you're misunderstanding my original statement,
which includes "...Sol Symp & HPWorld, at which there actually ARE at least
a few HP3000-relevant presentations".

Yes, the SolSymp really IS HP3000 related, and IMHO has far greater value
that HPWorld, which vendors are obligated to attend if only due to
tradition.

Thanks for airing this year's SolSymp agenda, but please desist with the
combative stance?

TIA

Tracy Pierce
