Since HP is buying Apollo, I can't resist:

The July 6, 1987 issue of the Wall Street Journal had an article on the
cultural difference between freewheeling Sun and straightlaced Apollo.
Quoted in that article:

"In this country, everything loose rolls to the West Coast."
                      Thomas A. Vanderslice, CEO of Apollo
