IBM Advert during Steelers/Broncho's game...

[dr2@xxxxxxxx]

Well...inside the 2 minute warning...GREAT placement for an ad..I thought
it was a iSeries ad...looked just like all those ads we only see at
COMMON...had the room full of obviousely WinTel servers and all the people
with their usual laments about how the servers were taking over and how
they needed to buy more servers....and then the guy comes in and tells
them that they're consolidating servers...this looked just like the
iSeries advert....but at the end the announcer and logo say: IBM xSeries
servers.  Intel/Windows wins again.

Looks like IBM's taking the same ad format and cloning it for i/p/x.

More product line blurring.  Just what we really need when people still
don't know what "i" can really do for them....they get another dose of
Gates.

At least the Steelers were impressive!
