I understand that we would have very little clout against HP if we were
really trying to battle them. I don't think they need to be battled just
persuaded. This need not, indeed should not, be adversarial.
I may be naive but I still do not see anything nefarious about the EOL of
the 3000. It was a business decision. Business decisions are not based upon
anything but the company's perception of what will benefit the company. We
may have a last chance to show them that at least part of their perception
was wrong.
I only bring up the lobby issue because it is an avenue to be explored.
Directly lobbying Winston Prather and CSY is still our best bet. (Word of
advice: Name calling and accusations are very poor lobbying tactics.) As I
said before I may be naive but I honestly believe that while we may disagree
on what the right thing is everyone wants to do the right thing.
The opinions expressed herein are my own and not necessarily those of my
employer.
