Bob:. You have it right and AAPL is doing the "right stuff" !

Jobs is addressing the reality of the market place in advance of Rhapsody . IBM and MOT want to keep an (1993) now unrealistic deal .

Jobs stated MOT & IBM would not agree to pay AAPL a small PowerPC royalty for CHRP yet AAPL's OS would create the sale .

The new Board , after meeting since Sunday , has not altered Job's direction which now has turned toward dealing with IBM . I hope he reminds IBM that they wanted a "3 % fee" to use its Micro Channnel in clone sales .

It is "intriguing" that MOT's PowerPC honcho Joe Guglielmi was one of the IBMers who made IBM's PowerPC deal with AAPL .

MOT and IBM will not abandon the PowerPC . Jobs is on target .
