Good news
While I'm not a big fan of IBM due to the usual
cost associated with their offerings, I like
their products overall and the fact that IBM is
one of if not the largest proponent of open
source software. I've used Lotus Notes and
found it not as bad as everyone says, and I
absolutely adore Lotus Symphony.

Looking forward to seeing more of this. As a
home user GMail and Google is my lifeblood, but
for a business I think I would rather have a
huge well-known company like IBM doing my
business hosting.
