    Let him go. Digital has enough managers and senior managers to replace
    everybody, from VP to clerks.

    OF course, they more of our senior management that we lose to
    competitors, the better those competitors become familiar with the
    inner workings and philosphies of out senior management. Assuming, of
    course, that our senior management, have anything worth knowing about.

Are you trying to say that the executives at Xerox are going to learn
where the best golf courses in New England are?
1648.6Digital's secret weaponSTAR::DIPIRROTue Oct 29 1991 14:013
    	Perhaps this is our secret weapon. Divide and conquer. Pretty soon
    all of our competitors will be run just as efficiently as we are, and
    we'll all share the same long-term vision...whatever that is...

We've already given some Xerox Execs a DECopter tour of some of Massachusetts 
Golf Courses (at least the ones between Marlboro and Logan...)

Hey, it helped to sell a VAX 9000!
