 * Delete copyvio/ad, nuff said -Harmil 29 June 2005 12:15 (UTC)
 * Keep and rewrite. Reads like a copyvio, but MicroAge is a well known company with a long history in Canada. I remember buying Windows/286 from a MicroAge store. Pburka 29 June 2005 18:25 (UTC)
 * I suspect that this is not the same MicroAge. The one you remember is probably this MicroAge in Canada. --WCFrancis 30 June 2005 14:03 (UTC)
 * You're right. I've withdrawn my vote. Pburka 2 July 2005 16:27 (UTC)

 * Delete as ad unless the contributor wants to rewrite/show notability. .:.Jareth.:. babelfish June 30, 2005 13:32 (UTC)
 * Uhh...the original contributor registered as Markmckeever. This person also created Mark McKeever (also on VfD as vanity page), identifying Mr. McKeever as the Chief Operating Officer of MicroAge. I understand that it is preferred that any rewrite be from someone not a part of the company. --WCFrancis 30 June 2005 13:51 (UTC)
