jc, i've done my research. it's like digging through your attic to find where your grandpa hid the KO certificates .brings up a lot of memories.
Well, itlooks like we are even (did we bet 2 cases on Qwiken?). I made a silly bet and so did you. we both know that I went looking for Qwiken for Nix on halloween and couldn't find it. I'm sure it will be out "real soon now..." <G>
Here's the relevant post on the other one. I didn't take the "sucker bet" on T. <G>

jc, why do u want to bet me against one of my own subs. we own a piece of t. if t does well that's good for bill, steve, and me.
Well, I think T has a lot more going for it than does MSFT. T after all is M$'s competition going forward. It was damn near philanthropic of MSFT to buy 5 Billion dollars of T and give T it's intellectual property in exchange for the billing addresses of AT&T's customers in Detroit. Anyway, our guys are running the FCC[1]. Your guys are merely running a silly ol' ponzi scheme that people are tired of.

lets do this. msft and sun.com 12 months from now. deal?
u know i like bud. that'll make two cases.
Two cases? Okay, Bud. Your 2 cases of Bud and the MSFT mutual fund -vs- my 2 cases of Red Nectar Ale and sun.com. If MSFT closes 192000 with a larger % gain than sun.com, you get 2 cases of Budweiser beer. If sun.com closes higher, I get 2 cases of Red Nectar (or Hempen Ale) from Humboldt Brewery in Arcata California. Heck twister, if MSFT closes higher than SUNW, I'll even send you a dedicated PC for those .GIFs you're so fond of.
