Ed Brill - Macworld: "Why are you here?"
"So why is IBM, and more specifically the Lotus brand team, at Macworld Expo (booth 3418 north hall, for those who want to stop by)? If you have been following my blog for the three months since I've moved to product management, you've heard me mention Apple more than a few times.
