I think the point is Tony, they DONT market U2. However, certainly in
europe, they are keen to market their U2 VARS solutions. For example
there is a big show in Germany, where IBM are exhibiting and they are
inviting any U2 vars to go along to the special IBM solution showcase.
U2 has more solutions that DB2 and IBM are begining to realise that
this is an asset that they can actively work with. |
This is good. The IBM people at CeBit in Hannover didn't even know
what a U2 was.

Agreed - this is what a grassroots movement is all about. I'm sure
I'll get slapped for repeating myself again but the MV vendors aren't
going to take these initiatives on their own, marketing must be driven
from the VAR channel.
