Ooops read to quickly .. "where" is much harder. Sorry! Well I admitted to
not being all that bright!

As for organizations, I can only think of sub-organizations, i.e. Sun's IT
department, believe it or not, was pretty close. Apple? Well the Print Shop
was cool, as well as the entire Lisa project. And, oddly enough, all the
tech marketing teams within the Lisa project. Mac unfortunately had some
problems. Xerox research had/has several good departments .. not all tho.

I get your point, though.
