My answer "they know how to do it" covers varied aspects like knowing how to run a business to even knowing how to cook books. Short and simple. >I never implied there is a conspiracy... I was refering to their accounting >methods... Remember the CA debacle ? Talking about "something smells fishy" without any supporting facts IS implying conspiracy. And going by other posts in the thread it's not only me who got this impression. CA's past or current accounting practices as relevant to IBM's results as UFOs around area 51. > >California accounting ..... IBM accounting..... Get it ? What does California accounting has to do with IBM accounting ? No, I didn't get it. Care to specify what you want me to get. > >DELL announced a big buy back , about 3 weeks ago. >SUN did the same.. Check the IT newspapers. > >This is "Computer news" ... not conspiracies.. Again what do DELL and SUN have to do with IBM ? IBM's business is not dependent on the success of either of these companies. In fact their bad news might have been caused by IBM's good news i.e. IBM selling x86 and Unix servers to the detriment of DELL and SUN. DELL announcing a buy back is news. Implying that this news has some relation with IBM and that something smells fishy IS conspiracy theory. > >Maybe you been to the movies too much lately Wrong, I rarely watch movies but where do you get these ideas from - XFiles ? > .. who knows why somebody >calls themselves 88 and please do not explain why you call your self "88". And "88" gives you creeps ! Come on, it's not even "666". BTW the story behind 88 is pretty banal. It seems that mkkhan was already taken and hotmail suggested mkkhan88 which I accepted. > >It's not important and might be another Musharraf conspiracy. > Again what does Musharraf has to do with it. If you are implying something about my locale or origin, you are wrong on both counts. Take another guess.
