Hey Scott!!

Thanks for the info!

It was very interesting..

Did not realize that there was a connection to Gates and Corbis...but we have some smart CEO at Real...a little quiet at time. This is typical of their press releases. No hype! They must have some big stack of press releases, just easing a little out each day.

For others on the thread...the following was taken from Gate's Bio..

In addition to his passion for computers, Gates is
interested in biotechnology. He sits on the board of
the Icos Corporation and is a shareholder in Darwin
Molecular, a subsidiary of British-based Chiroscience.
He also founded Corbis Corporation, which is developing
one of the largest resources of visual information in the
world-a comprehensive digital archive of art and photography
from public and private collections around the globe. Gates
also has invested with cellular telephone pioneer Craig
McCaw in Teledesic, a company that is working on
an ambitious plan to launch hundreds of low-orbit satellites
around the globe to provide worldwide two-way broadband
telecommunications service.
