Gentlemen, I am indeed very grateful to you all and thank you all.
There is, indeed, compelling evidence supporting the case for fewer and even no LPARs but, unfortunately, it is proprietary and cannot be presented. I know that all sounds a little too convenient, but it is true. But thank you all and rest assured I have, indeed, read and learned and appreciate very much all that you all have written and said. Please, no hard feelings. Thank you.
