I am an HP3000 bigot from my head to my toes and I simply saw this as a HP9000 video teleconference. I have been to other teleconference where the HP9000 was never mentioned. I think in this particular instance, HP was simply targeting a specific audience with this video conference. I do believe that HP could have and probably should have targeted both the HP3000 and the HP9000 with the message they delivered in the teleconference. I think it was very relevant for all HP users. It probably should have been produced using a joint effort by both CSY and GSY. A larger audience might have helped when it came time for the Q&A period, HP wouldn't have had to ask so many questions for themselves. Unless that is the way GSY does their Q& A sessions. -- ************************************* ** ** ** Chad Gilles ** ** Sr. Software Analyst ** ** ------------------------------- ** ** American United Life ** ** One American Sq. ** ** Indianapolis, IN 46206-0368 ** ** ------------------------------- ** ** Ph. 317-263-1423 ** ** Fx. 317-263-1956 ** ** EM.
