Bomber, no argument here.  Most discourse about the cutting edges are
both forward and
backward looking.   Precedent factors in, but on truely disruptive
technology one must also
factor in a new deal.   Now, if what's cutting edge about Herc is
emulation, then there exists
precedent that seems directly applicable, namely experience as I 've
reported it in bringing
an emulator to market through the IBM thicket.  If there is something
else cutting edge about Herc for
which that precedent is not as good a guide, I am open to learn of it.

Outside of that, it goes almost without saying that if the IBM business
model were to change, then anything
I've said about likely business practices also goes out the window, in
which case we and others will simply
adapt.
