Poor 'saurs. They are now the namesake for anything large and ugly. I am impressed, that most people are impressed by this merger. After all the press is thrilled everytime to large dysfunctional organizations become even larger, and throw their employees on the streets....

I am never impressed when an organization grows even larger just to "consolidate" things. Never has meant good news. Lets see, Chrysler did it, Oracle's done it...and so on. Have the products ever improved? Has the customer been happier? Has the customer been bothered with.

Still, this merger may seem a little bit rosy like it is meant to be. Let's wait, watch, and find out!!!
