There's Something About IBM
As you can tell by reading this blog and my Infinite Ink site, I do what I can to support small businesses and to try to prevent the big companies from entirely taking over the Internet.

I thought so too when I joined IBM in 1964. I left the company in 1994 with that same opinion. I've been disappointed in the past decade with the IBM slamming that's been going on. I left some very talented friends behind, so it's good to know that there is still a professional atmosphere in eveidence at Big Blue.
