[dundee] Are These Two Connected?

[Lee Hughes]

Hmm, don't mergers usually mean layoffs?

i.e if ou have to head offices, merged into one, you don't need two receptionists?

If you a NT shop, and you convert your 'assimilated' company unix infrastructure
to win32, you don't need lots of unix heads running around. Unless you retrain
them... I'd be heading for the door.
