I've talked to business partners and you've told me that you are working with a district manager and he or she is unwilling or inflexible to bring you into these accounts even though the partner that is selling there has no real expertise in BCS [business-critical system] units. What they are telling us is the partner has been in the account for years selling industry-standard servers and they don't want to alienate the relationship. We have to make sure that at the district manager level, at the rep level and at the executive level, we are helping to make the right call to get the right value from the business partner directly engaged with us in the market.
