Personally I think this is a "good thing". Over the last few years
(certainly since Ken left and probably a little before) the Digital/DEC
brand name became tarnished (to say the least). The best thing that Compaq
could do (in a marketing sense) is to get rid of the Digital brand name. I
just hope they manage to keep the Digital engineering philosophy/people.
