Yep. Kodak seem to prefer closing down whole divisions rather than
making them work.

Look at the closing of the Brazil B&W photo paper division. 15,000+
Brazilian blue collar workers will be unemployed, probably the same payroll
of a single senior VP at Kodak, who keeps his job and pension...

On bright spot; Less rainforest gets cut down for the production!
Why couldn't Kodak keep the plant and switch it to digital print
media? Because they probably want to shift that production to China.

That's the problem with most big companies today, 5-10 people make
multi-millions a year making poor decisions while the company goes
"bankrupt".

A friend is getting CAD$0.19 4x6's as Jean Coutu (Pharmacy chain) by
uploading and she picks up the images at the most convenient store the
next day. She stiched some panoramics that came out at 16 inches x 4
inches and that came to .... CAD$0.19.

Kodak can't compete with that. Price or delivery.
