Dear twister: I don't know what the marketplace wants anymore. I
delivered the $800 NC at Javaone and now they tell me it has to be
$400 because they will buy the $800 PC from the borg instead.
Imagine, a $400 computer (wiping sweat off brow). It wasn't long ago
when the cheapest computer we sold was $10000. Those were the good
old days <sigh>. Well, anyways, we've still got the Java ring.
They'll never take that away from us!
Lets see what we have for email this morning on my Javastation. Well,
the first one is from Gosling, our chief java guru, calling me a
moron again. I really wish he would stop doing that.
These Javastation's are great, they don't have that noisy fan of the
workstation I used to use. I really don't understand why our
employees don't want to use them.
Uh, hang on here for a sec Twister, I've got Lou Gerster on line 1.
Hello Lou, what did you think of Javaone?
Ah huh, Ah huh.
Of course Lou. We are totally committed to handing over control of
Java to the proper standards body. We just have to make sure Java
doesn't get ruined by the borg so we'll have to keep on setting the
Java standard here at Javasoft until the forces of evil have been
eliminated.
Thanks Lou. Yeah, hockey practice went well but I think I pulled my
groin again. Goodbye, and we'll talk to you later Lou.
Sorry about that twister. That idiot Gerstner actually thinks we are
going to give up control of Java. What does he think we are spending
all that money on R&D for? To give it away to him for nothing?
