And HP's been going to crap ever since. This is a great argument on how
NOT to do things!  When you have a system that works fantanstic and you
are a respected leader in your field around the world, it makes no good
sense to gut your infrastructure just because the new kid on the block
points his finger and whines at you that "you don't the kewl shoes he
does so you must be a looser". 

But then again, when you're at the top, there's only one direction you
can go.
