Re: News/400's new web site?

["L. S. Russell" <leslier@xxxxxxxxxx>]

How does this say anything about News 400, it seems to say more about
the fact that IBM has lost direction as did the piece that followed it
which showed that Tom Jarosh failed to show up for a remote Keynote
address and there is still no word as to what the problem was.

Those who know me know that I have strong opinions about some of the
articles I have read in News 400, but except for the speed of the site I
am impressed with the idea, I think News 400 has shown that they
actually have a new direction. IBM has shown that they can't even follow
directions sadly :(
