Truer words were never spoken....
When SteveB talks, Wall Street should listen. This man is the Gordon Gecko of our time, moving markets and shaking industries to their very foundations. Vista and Office 2007 are off to AMAZING starts. Now that the NOW has started, Google better look out for this mighty behemoth Microsoft. MSN Live Search is the most powerful search engine known to man. The other day I was out to lunch with my rep and heard the guy at the next table say "he was Googling for something". I put down my napkin, got up, and went over to the man. I immediately whipped out my Pocket PC and told him the better way to find something was just to "MSN IT". I then squirted him with trial-ware from my Zune while my rep was IM'ing me on my Windows Mobile Phone. Google is in deep trouble. The world is moving toward a thick client environment where Windows is the center of the universe and the web feeds into Windows. The WOW STARTS NOW, you heard it here first. As my rep says, "Why search Google when MSN is Cooler?".
