Ballmer Says Bill Gates Designed the IBM PC. Huh?
Did Steve Ballmer say Bill Gates created the IBM PC? Is he high?. Meanwhile the company is battling VM-ware, Orbitz to replace Expedia on MSN. IPO’s in the doldrums. When did the full-frame camera become hot? The semantic search is a dead-end, says I. Adobe gives Yahoo and Google special flash search code. Samsung Instinct handset is hot.

Will Bill Gates Please Leave the Building!
New top level domains still in play. Look for dot.porn among other names. A land rush projected. 700 redundant news stories today about Bill Gates and how he’s retiring. Cripes. When will it end? Dell adding colorful laptops. What took them so long? Microsoft indeed going on a buying spree. Intuit does layoffs. This is all the news they can manage. Yahoo reorg news also clogging up the news channels. Susan Decker is now the boss it seems to me. Should the US nationalize the Internet? Symbian versus Android? What can Sarbanes-Oxley do for you? Nothing.
