| here we are into Q4, and no Digital UNIX advertising. The closest we
got was Digital UNIX mentioned along with OVMS & NT in the first ad
in the current series. The last 2 ads did not mention Digital UNIX,
although the other O/Ss were noted.

| I recently did a UNIX/Cluster presentation to a large hospital in
Cleveland. One of the people I was presenting to had 15 years
experience in UNIX. At the end of my presentation, he told me that he
considers himself fairly well read, and had NEVER heard/read ANYTHING
about what I had just talked about - especially in refards to our
Cluster technology.
I guess my question is: if we are really seriour about this technology
as a differentiator, are we going to tell anyone? We in the field can't
tell the whole world. We need help from Marketing.

| It's software. Digital doesn't sell software (except to make its hardware
usable.) We don't advertise software. Engineering isn't allowed to spend its
own money on advertising (something that is making it very difficult for our
new DIGITAL Visual Fortran product).
Now "clustering" was a new chip, there would be ads everywhere. Palmer
understands chips.
