Well the definition of a sandwich is: two pieces of bread with something (such as meat, peanut butter, etc.) between them. I would say a bun qualifies as two pieces of bread, so my answer would be YES -- Steve

You can find press releases to see what's happening with IBM here: http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressreleases/recent.wss IBM recently has created partnerships with Apple, Docker, Cloud Foundry and others. We're very active in the cloud space as well as smarter cities and IBM's contributions to the open source community. IBM continues to make transitions on an ongoing basis... but they're certainly transitions for the better - Richard

Netflix, hands down.

I dont think any of the IBM devs here have worked on Lotus Notes. Sometimes we'll work on a project and it'll get canned, that's probably were you'll get the actual response to the question.

'It was so bad we canned it'

I personally dont get all the hate for Notes. The client, while sometimes slow, has never gotten in the way of me doing what I want to do with it. Which is sending and receiving emails and Sametime 99% of the time. I have verse which i can access from in browser, but I still have notes for other tasks. All of which it does without issue.

That's not to say that people dont have problems with it. I may be in the minority. I sometimes feel like hating on notes is a bit like hating on coldplay (which was a big thing in the UK for a while).

I'm not a seller, and I dont know what tactics are being used for companies to purchase notes. Though if you're unhappy with it, you should probably be encouraging alternatives that fill all of your companies needs, though Your 1st port of call should be to raise a support ticket.

I know that exchange is without its faults (having worked for a tech support company that looked after small-medium sized companies) and other alternitives have their problems too.

If the grass isnt greener, then it's time to make yourself a billionaire ;)
