Some thoughts to ponder about on this beautiful Sunday morning.....

1. There is more computing power in a new Chrysler than there was in the Apollo spacecraft.

2. The cost of computing power has declined 10 million fold in the
past two decades.

3. Within 10 years Intel expects to squeeze 1 billion transistors
into a microprocessor.

4. According to Intel, PC sales will exceed television sales next
year.

5. One strand of fiber-optic cable can transmit in less than two
seconds every issue of The New York Times ever published.

6. Electronic commerce will explode from $20 billion in 1998 to
$125 billion by 2001.

7. In six years more than 1 billion people will be on the Internet.

8. Within three years mobile phones will account for 75 percent of
all new phone subscription.

9. The growth in the coming 10 years (from information technology)
will exceed, by orders of magnitude, all the growth attributable to
the last 100 years of the Industrial Revolution.


The above taken from a column by Malcom Berko.

My own thoughts for this Sunday morning.

IBM/DELL agreement: I look at this agreement as a "blind date".
Twp "biggies" meet on a blind date to see if they have perhaps similar
interests, and if they are physically attracted to one another.

If both parties like what they see in each other, they will get
"engaged" in a relatively short period of time. (Another shoe drops)

If the "engagement" works out then we have a "marriage". (Another shoe
drops)

While some Companies settled for "less than the best", DELL is going
to the ball with the "BEST".

IBM by DELL........I can live with that........J.D.
