Scott,

Is this the same Campbell, Bill, who used to work at Apple and was in charge of Claris software? He was a good guy in those days. I agree there's something more behind this. No way could he simply be dropping Quicken on the Mac and be approved for Apple's board without there being something else and the else better be something very good for Apple.

I can't say I'm happy to hear that Apple's buying any more software, since they themselves have a history of divestiture and failure with so much of their software. They don't stick it out and do their best with enough of it. But that's certainly the kind of software that most people want to own, and which could be bundled with all Macs, so it could sweeten the Mac if Apple improved it and sold it (or gave it away with the Macs).

Thanks for the thought-provoking gossip.

Linda
