Into the toilet, because DECpaq is being bought by a politically
correct beeyotch who screwed up Lucent and left before the damage
became apparent?  

Now she gets the chance to squat over the graves of HP's founders and
unload the contents of her brains.

Everyone fawned over her, she even made the cover of Forbes magazine.
They didn't even mention the Lucent fiasco in their coverage.

Into the toilet, because Robert Palmer was a doody-head and the only
head of a major computer company to not understand enough about Bill
Gates to stay away from him?

Into the toilet, because Eckhard Pfeiffer wouldn't have known a decent
OS if it gave knelt down and gave him a Lewinsky?  

Read the original press release announcing the acquisition.  Eckhard
is dizzy over DEC having profits, not over having bulletproof OSes
that they can use to deliver solutions for their customers.  Palmer is
in the press release, flapping his jaws over the wonders of NT!

rant off...
