How about.. .. an impressive recognized gentleman (like Avery Brooks) strides through a barren land.. perhaps just a white void like in the Matrix.. he comes upon a lemon stand looking booth with a fortune teller gazing into a crystal ball.. quoting mumbo jumbo about the future stats of some company.. "When your looking for information.. don't look towards false 'prophets'.." agitated she screams and briefly looks up from her crystal ball, then dives back into a trance.. "Oracles and charlitans are everywhere.." again she yelps! A close up of Avery Brooks and a raise of the eyebrow, he strides from the void into a desert looking wasteland.. he crosses the waste land.. "look further.. 'See' farther.. Seek the original Source for your Information needs.. " He crests a peek and the sky transitions from daylight to dusk overhead, we see a lavish and high tech city sprawling the valley below.. "Look towards the future.. and a new generation to solve your database needs.." He walks from the peak into a high tech lab, past pedestals with evolving PC's, Sun Servers, HP servers, and up from behind a user sitting in front of a terminal obscuring the view.. she turns and we see the screen with a webrowser and a view of object primatives, cones, and spheres, and cubes dancing in flight.. "Think of the objective and never loose sight of it.." The focus grows and zeros in between the objects on screen.. in the distance two letters gow and zoom towards us.. the letters.. IX Which expand sideways to make room for the letters; I-nformi-X "The original source of information.. for the next generation.." or... "Multics.. Unix.. Politics, platforms to the Nth Tegree.. which platform should you choose to appease the IT gods? What if you could choose the smart choice? And choose the platform that pleases everyone? What if you could just say.. yes, and let it be so?
