It was not from IBM, but rather Dolphin Interconnect Solutions (SCI
stuff).  They are offing some introductory prices on SCI for Linux,
NT, Solaris.  If you have interest in SCI then you should check
out their web site www.dolphinics.com.

I assume I was sent a "form letter via email".  Just seemed
a little "spammy"* to me so I was asking if anyone else got.
It seems it was only directed at me.

* "spammy" - spam like in nature,  a way to describe non specific email
that is sent to specific people - kind of like a "form letter".
