If IBM marketed sushi they'd brand it Cold Dead Fish.

I must take exception to this. They would far more likely name it IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish (formerly known as Sushi) for clarity's sake.

I have finally figured out who is running IBM:

There must be an IBM product called "Crunchy, Raw, Unboned Real Dead Frog" as seen here as well.

And I was wondering what they were doing after shutting down their last business.

Now everything is clear!

LOL! And the menu would look like this:
IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 1
IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 2 (Optional - with purchase of IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 1)
IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 3 (Optional - only with purchase of IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 1 and IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Salmon Edition Piece 2)
...6 or 7 more times for each item....

And don't even get started on the maki rolls....

you are absoluty right. It is a nightmare
but when you open the pricebook you will find somthing like

IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Sal Ed P1
IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Sal Ed P2 + SW Main etc..

Take that, Microsoft(TM) Nemo 2006 Cold Edition ...

looking forward to see the presentation slides mentioning not the product names but the acronyms - and the very serious discussion about the new products
- Hey, the IMCDREF tastes realy good
- Yes, but you should test it with our new AddOn solution, the IVSS* for IMCDREF

*IBM Vegetable Soy Sauce

And for Latin America :

IBM Marine Cold Dead Raw Eating Fish - Express

.::AleX::.

With "Oral Entry Points"! :)
