Thank you. Great information.

"Sabre announced plans last fall [circa 2001] to move its shopping engine to an open system using NonStop Himalaya servers from Compaq Computer Corp. over four years (see story)."

"That Compaq and Sabre are neighbors probably didn't hurt either, said Richard Eastman, president of The Eastman Group Inc. in Newport Beach, Calif. But there are other considerations as well.

"IBM has a culture that would be threatened by what Sabre is trying to do now. IBM's airline people are all legacy mainframe guys. IBM's network guys don't have [business contacts] at Sabre, Eastman said. "Right now Compaq needs the business, and I betcha if their technology is essentially equal, pricing played a role."
