Thanks for taking the time to do this AMA. I thought you had finished up but I see you'll be around a bit longer.

I recently read 'The Fall and Decline of IBM' by Robert Cringely. It's a very opinionated book particularly focused on IBM services department (I know you aren't services, though.) Have any of you read this book and find that the claims are unfounded?

It's inevitable that large companies will have areas that they struggle with. One of the claims is that management has become too bloated. Do you see this as a threat to the company?
