As someone who criticized some of the technical content of the Fujitsu
press release, I'd like to express strong support for its posting.  Even
the most marketing-oriented press releases generally contain more
information than winds up in most newspapers.  I think the readers of
this group are intelligent enough to weigh the evidence for themselves.

Frankly, I think that those companies whose marketing-oriented and
hype-filled press releases get posted generally do themselves more harm
than good.  I certainly wouldn't worry that they are getting some kind
of business advantage.
