| Abstract: | For IBM, running the computer systems at the Oympics was supposed to be a great opportunity to showcase the computer giant's budding Internet skills. IBM's Atlanta performance did generate headlines around the world -- only they were for a glitch-ridden system that couldn't get scores or accurate statistics to news organizations on time. That is just what IBM didn't need. While the browser battle between Netscape Communications Corp. and Microsoft Corp. was grabbing all the headlines, IBM had spent a year quietly working on products and strategies to make good on Chairman Louis V. Gerstner Jr.'s promise of making the company a leader in network computing. |
