Actually it's not really IBM that's the majority of the problem price-wise,
I could name a few vendors
that decided to just recently quadruple their price. Once we made it clear
we'd look at alternatives,
and brought them in-house for a trial, all of a sudden, the "old" vendor
"magically" decided they'd
rather have the business at the old price than no business at all.
