I know that there are many anecdotal stories of them making a mess of things and I said that I was "only talking to the CEO of Reuters the other day and they were not happy with Hitachi's performance" I then told the guy that because of Hitachi's PSL excluding us from supplying I would be reluctant to see him.

    I have asked him to write to me saying I might consider them because I want to send a childish reply turning them down and ccing their head of resourcing

    Anyway I will stick to my part time Polish guy in the meantime
