China is cracking down big time on pirated goods and has recently passed measures that ensure that all IPR's are protected. Hu didn't visit Seattle at the beginning of his trip just to smell the fresh air. He rode in on a plane made by Boeing (did you hear about the $5 billion plane order?) and had dinner with Government and Business dignitaries at Bill and Melinda Gates house tonight.

If Europe has any brains at all they would take a lesson. Either that or allow themselves to get caught up in the manufactured chaos of the ME.......their choice.

In the mean time the trade gap between the U.S. and China will narrow when all of those new computers (loaded with the latest and greatest MSFT programs) are sold to the new middle class. And let's not forget QUALCOMM and the b's of dollars of product waiting to be sold.

We'll also be doing more business than ever with the new middle class in India and other developing countries in Asia and Eastern Europe.

Along with knowing that several countries in the ME are also concerned and apt to act to contain Iran, one can almost see a good future ahead.

I think I'm going to run out and get a Starbucks. ;)
