Your welcome!  We've been kicking EQL's tail left and right out in the West!

 Don't feel too bad...2nd place isn't that bad!  :)  How are you liking the new gig at Dell?

 Be sure to give me a ring next time you are in SLC!

Yo James,  ha ha ha,  well I'm sure that you are doing well - I just wish it wasn't for one of our competitors. You alone probably gave the C guys the extra push in sales force competency to put you .02% ahead of us in the general category.

Dell/EqualLogic really did well in that survey.  But of course, it sure casts Compellent in a positive light as well!  I'd say it's a big pat on the back for the guys like the both of you - and the biggies should watch out.  There's a BIG drop off in the overall score from Compellent and EqualLogic to HDS and the rest...
