Kicking off a new era of 'Live BS'
BG has been kicking off all these 'superb' technologies recently:

"trustworthy conputing initiative" --> which remained more in the trashworthy side...

.NET --> .NOT yet there, .NOT yet widely used ...

Longhorn --> Vista just some iconas...

That global super-middleware that would glue everything together... what ever happened to it?


``The products won't replace the company's ubiquitous operating system or productivity suite, and people don't need to have that software loaded to tap into the Web versions. "They are not required to use Windows or Office," Gates said at a press event here.''


Ohhh and now that our FAT client profiteering model is being impregnated left and right, why don't you give US your data and we will process it for you (at a "small" fee of course wink ).

MS: ``You spent your HOT cash to buy our HOT air''(TM)
