Thirty of them said that Mr. Cooley's remarks were racism and two said
differently. The detail is in http://www.dynalab.com/dynalab. "Racism or 
Not Racism" section.

I posted a message about a Compaq executive's remark yesterday. Here is 
the follow-up:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
San Jose Mercury News - July 1, 1995, Business section

A Compaq Computer Corp. executive apologized Friday for remarks construed 
as racist by some Hispanic groups and that prompted calls for a boycott 
of the company's computers. "I regret that a business disagreement 
between Compaq and Packard Bell has been construed by Packard Bell in 
racist terms, and I sincerely apologize to any ethnic group that has been 
offended as a result." said Compaq senior vice president Ross Cooley. 
Earlier, it was reported that Cooley said if Packard Bell's executive 
cashed out, their company would be left with "some Mexican factories and 
four Chinese engineers."
