Jacobs must make demand to Gates that WK first entry be less loaded, smaller size, not so ambitious..

JW, you're validating my point. How likely is it, and in what time frame, that Bill's techhies working with Q will be able to tear the guts out of CE to make it agile, mobile and hostile (in the words of my highschool football coach) and suitable for quick and feature adaptable wireless? Perhaps Lindy or Uncle Franq would care to comment on the likelihood of this.

Why go through all of the trouble to strip down CE to something it was never meant to be when Q, with whomever they wanted as a JV partner, including MSFT, could have started with a clean, lean OS with built in RTOS features? WAP and its charter software development members would have been quicker off the launch pad.

Regards. Steven

PS Hope you're right on TA on bonds. Don't know. Clough bowed to the weight of evidence and stepped down. Contractors doing work on our house this Spring now tell me that, e.g., plywood--simple plywood, is on back order and selling at prices 30% higher now than in May.....
