Not the way it works. If I do a test and find it works

Bastids. This is bad news for PWD/FLEX suckers. IBM's next red herring
for developers will be a PSI box which we will all stumble over

Hi,
Ok, so for all the IBM'ers that do not have their Out of office message on,
what does this press release actually say, because all I can conclude is that

What we want to know as customers :
a) Can we still buy these boxes
b) Will

Hi Mark,
The bigger question is actually :
a) Did PSI just surrender because they do not have the spare cash to take
