I actually like that one -- seriously! It's a little hackneyed as
concepts go, but the feeling is right. Better than "Digital Has it
Now" or the "imagine" thing. The "Has It Now" always makes me wonder
just what it is that we have -- a contagious disease, or...?

the Digital booth, their slogan read something like "Imagine -

I often thought we should have imitated the Intel Inside campaign
and put an "Alpha-On-Board" window sticker on all our Alphas...

or, speaking to our core competencies,
Digital: Process is Our Most Important Product
or, getting realistic,
Digital: Where Reorganizations Are Job 1
[alternate] Digital: "Watch" Us Reorganize
[alternate] Digital: You Can Be a VP Too! (just return this box-top)
or, in light of our various recent "strategic" product cancellations,
Digital: Making Your Tomorrow Into Our Yesterday
or, in honor of Gresh Brebach,
Digital: Looking Forward (to when we finally finish "rightsizing")
