I did think I stuck out like a sore thumb, especially in my "Elvis" red flowery Hawaiian shirt. I guess I didn't look quite enough like AlQ to get people really suspicious, more like a crazy old geezer likely to get run over. There was a pleasant chap in the security booth at the vehicle entrance at HQ who told me photography was not allowed on the property. I wanted to get closer to get a decent photo. It's funny how in the good old days, I wandered into the Design Center and got in a lift and Andrew Viterbi got in too and passed a few comments on the way up. No security, locks, ID and stuff. Just nice people doing great stuff. That was in 1994. I suppose times have changed and now that QCOM has money, and loads of it, and is a big deal, everyone, including governments, want to take what they have instead of getting a real job and doing something themselves. It was amazing to see the majority of the area now QCOM occupied. Way back in 1977, I thought San Diego was the best place on Earth. Dr J figured that too long before. The Mira Mesa buildings looked like a new world dropped onto the dry landscape. Now they have faded after the biotelecosmictechdot.com crunch, but QCOM continues to boom. For lease and equivalent signs are everywhere. Those still in business are not buying new buildings all over the place. Nokia has been defeated in their CDMA "We Rule the World" plans. But they haven't accepted that yet and are in the process of litigation and negotiation with QCOM to try to chisel them down a bit on royalty and licence fees. It was a very interesting day. I want to know what is 'Qualistics'. I'll have to ask Google. Doesn't say it's part of QUALCOMM, but I suspect it is and has been spun off as a management company = good idea if that's the case: qualistics.com Mqurice
