As part of a task force studying this problem, I have called some of the major hardware vendors (namely SGI, HP, and Sun). SGI told one of the team members "we're not allowed to really talk about this". Sun and HP have both said "we've formed a council that has been evaluating the situation, and will make available anything we have done to help alleviate or prevent the problems".

Since everyone is so desperate to say that they are the leader in Internet servers, perhaps the media folks watching this should contact the vendors, then report on their woefully inadequate response to the problem. There needs to be more muscle to get theses folks to move FAST when problems like this come up. Avi has proven it is doable. It shows how used to the router vendors' 'We'll fix it today' response we've gotten. Jerry
