Quick Observation


"Shooting you straight" (as we like to say in Texas, which is synonymous with "to tell you the truth" ), I thought Keith's presentation was one of the best IBM presentations I've seen in a long time. It was well organized, full of meaningful and funny graphics, and the content should be very useful to all viewers. I asked Keith if he watched DB2's GOT TALENT and took tips from our judges, and he said that he did. icon_biggrin
I hope you enjoy Keith's presentation much as I did - I know I'll be watching the replay a few times myself!
