Nope. Timothy Sipples (IBM'er) also said that the meeting never took place.

   However, the meeting never took place because there was no need for it. IBM 
decided before the 'final meeting' that there would be no StardockIBM OS/2
client. So Tim was right, the meeting never took place, but he tried to make
it look like Brad was luying about it. As far as I can remember, Brad never
claimed that the meeting actually took place.

   Although Tim Martin is (as you point out) somewhat of a crazed fanatic,
it's important to remember that he does have some good news-sources.


Here's a helper:
