Hillary didn't stop with <strong>the</strong> summit <strong>of</strong> Everest. He achieved o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

summits, time and again.<br />

Now that each <strong>of</strong> you has <strong>reached</strong> <strong>the</strong> summit <strong>of</strong> Control Data's<br />

sales world, <strong>the</strong> challenge is for you to do it again -- pushing<br />

even higher this time. <strong>The</strong> higher <strong>the</strong> climb, <strong>of</strong> course, <strong>the</strong> more<br />

difficult <strong>the</strong> task. But you've already demonstrated <strong>the</strong> qualities<br />

to do it.<br />

I'll leave you with this quote from Hillary's autobiography,<br />

"Nothing Venture, Nothing Win."<br />

Hillary said: "...what really counts (is) not just achieving<br />

things...but <strong>the</strong> advantage you have taken <strong>of</strong> your opportunities<br />

and <strong>the</strong> opportunities you created."<br />

I know you will create and seize many more opportunities.<br />

Thank you.<br />
