This sounds very interesting, indeed.

Now that HP is becoming more and more interested in the HP3000 (as
witnessed by HP's positive attitude in Chicago during the recent HP World
Conference), it would be a great opportunity to promote the use of the
HP3000 in China -- as well as all over the world, of course.

I commend your enthusiasm and I wish you the very best.  Please let me know
if there is anything I can do to help.  I have visited HP offices in Hong
Kong and in Singapore and I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting the
enthusiastic people who work there (HP folks, consultants, end users).

Due to tremendous economic pressures, companies in the Pacific Rim *MUST*
be extremely efficient and cannot afford to waste time fiddling around with
unreliable and/or immature computer systems that have a very high cost of
ownership (which is well-hidden by an amazing amount of PR).  The HP3000 is
a well-kept competitive secret for many of the wisest firms.  Perhaps it is
time to let the secret out and to share it with their less-fortunate
colleagues who use average run-of-the-mill computer systems.

The market for the HP3000 is monumental!  It's only a matter of education.
Your two-day seminars sound like an ideal thing.


With best wishes,
