Last year you helped me get out a notice to the Chicago Computer Society.
Can you make your users group aware of this upcoming event?  Thanks for
your help.

In late October, IBM's Chairman, Sam Palmisano, announced his vision of
computing in the future.  We are in a new era: the on demand era. In this
era you're expected to  react quickly to your customer's changing needs.
You are required to do more with less. Competitive advantage is won or lost
in a heartbeat.

I'd like to invite you to learn more about how you can not only survive,
but thrive in this changing environment.  On June 3, Don Tapscott, an
internationally sought after speaker and authority on business strategy,
will be in Chicago to discuss how technology is transforming business and
how you can capitalize on these changes.   Don specializes in the impact of
information and communication technologies on business and society and his
clients include top executives from many Fortune 100 companies and
government leaders from around the world.  Don Tapscott has authored or
co-authored nine widely read books on the application of technology in
business, including Paradigm Shift (1991), The Digital Economy (1995),
Growing Up Digital (1998) and Digital Capital (2000).  He is currently
co-authoring with David Ticoll, The Naked Corporation:  How the Age of
Transparency Will Revolutionize Business (publication fall 2003).

 After Don's presentation, you'll have the opportunity to choose from a
number of break out sessions intended to help you transform your IT
infrastructure to support your on demand business.  Offerings include:

·     Autonomic and Grid Computing: The Game Changers.
·     Linux: Linux in the Mainstream
·     IBM eServer iSeriesTM: Powerful e-business solutions with Linux
·     IBM eServer xSeriesTM and BladeCenter: Modular Scalability for Intel®
Applications.
·     IBM eServer pSeriesTM: Make no Compromises in you on demand business
·     IBM eServer zSeriesTM: Providing the Foundation for on demand
computing
·     TotalStorageTM: Improving Storage Operations in Your Environment.
·     Simplify your Infrastructure with Consolidation:  The first step to
an on demand environment
·     Services to enable e-business on demand
·     IBM Software:  Integrating and enabling the world of on demand

I hope you can join me at this event.  Please visit www.ibm.com
