Ahh, but Fred, the last time Clinton was in California he slept at Steve Jobs' house! Anyway, I'm pleased to have no Microsoft products on my computer and I can get away with that since I only need a word processor and a web browser from Netscape.

I've got a small position in NOVL right now and am pretty sure we at least go to $13.50 by NW 5.0 shipdate. Hoping to see some robust earnings for once. .40 in 1999 doesn't seem like enough to get us to $20.

From the News.Com article today about NT 5.0:

<<Gartner predicted the software giant will not deliver a beta
"appropriate for full-function testing purposes" until the second
quarter of next year when it ships the third beta in what was
originally scheduled to be a two-beta process. The consultant
advises that users should continue to purchase proven operating
system software such as NT 4.0 with the appropriate service
packs, Novell's NetWare, and flavors of Unix.>>
