Point taken. As I responded on another list...
But remember, forwarding isn't necessarily endorsing either the article
or comments. The political statements weren't mine; they were attached
to the article. I included them specifically as examples of folly (there
were other, germane comments), illustrating how people use/spin business
news to push their own unrelated agendas. I obviously didn't make that
clear, and should have either omitted the comments or made that point.
Regarding article itself -- same point about forwarding not being
endorsing. But in VM, we live in the IBM universe. So it seems that
major IBM news and even some speculation -- such as CEO changes,
earnings, at least some acquisitions/divestitures, staffing trends --
are interesting and relevant (as others noted). Such articles are
speculation, of course, because IBM doesn't reveal facts to report, so
that's all that's possible to provide.
Anyway, as I said -- points taken regarding forwarding, especially
comments from elsewhere.
Ken Hume <[email protected]> suggested, reasonably enough:
Please tell me which current IBM employees collaborated with the Nazis.
