Google has a link to a cached copy of the Austin-American Statesman article re: IBM winning a State of Texas IT outsourcing contract, but oddly enough the newspaper's own Web site doesn't have the article. The IT resources tally is quite interesting: 31 data centers, 16 mainframes, and "more than 7,000 servers at 1,300 locations...." That's for 27 state agencies which, evidently, couldn't figure out how to pool IT resources. (Hint: mainframes are quite useful.)
