Well it was run by engineers, and that's why their superior equipment was never able to compete with Big Blue's well-trained sales force.
Anybody I know from that era who had to work on both platforms know exactly what I'm talking about. The Alpha chip should have killed IBM, but they just didn't know how to market it. But we sure loved being the group using DEC while the others labored to get their IBM stuff to run.
Sales is king..
