I see Intershop as a leader in the E-commerce digital economy and believe the company has truly long-term potential.

I think the PC will continue to be around for a long, long time to come. We see a new range of products evolving around the PC, but it's not going away.

I turned Compaq from a small company with troubles into a computer powerhouse. We can do the same at Intershop.

We are reinventing ourselves as a company. Compaq is taking ownership of its customer relationships and accountability of our customer's needs.

I admit that the direct model has done a lot for Dell. That's the only thing the company has ever really accomplished.

I am a very thorough person.
