Oh... used to build IBM hardware for a job.  The chat on the 
production bench was "wouldn't touch IBM wiv a bargepole mate!".  
Average level of education of the production line staff was a single 
degree in physics.  Some of us had a degree in medicine and or 
chemistry as well.  So, not people who know nowt.

I think the IBM sales team give the impression that IBM can do no 
wrong ?  I can't agree with that.  My own thing is that if you don't 
like Ebay then www.comet.co.uk is very good.  Over the counter sales 
or order online.

Sorry to be so much of a bore.
