I have to believe that it was the "different" nature of Angus
that got the award this time around.

Perhaps. It is the "Innovation" award, and Angus is innovative. I guess
David should get the "lifetime achievement" award. <G>

Haven't we all been bitching about the marketing of the system
forever? Isn't Angus the first spot to have ever realistically
attempted to address that?

We have, and Trevor's efforts won't fix it. The only one that can fix it
is IBM. Who markets Windows? Microsoft! Who markets Escorts? Ford! Who
markets Coke? Coke! Who markets System i? Trevor? Just doesn't make
sense.

PS. I actually like Angus, I mean no offense to Trevor.
