Hi Mephisto! Where have you *been? SUNW has begun marching through Georgia to the sea (sorry, I'm running out of metaphors) <G> -JCJ

no it is not...For example Larry Ellison is on Apple's board and if I am not mistaken McNealy is on Apple's board as well. I am not sure if Scott would leave..he wants to make SUN into a GE...

>Do you think McNealy will be considered as replacement for GE's CEO? Is that the rumor going around? No to both, Mephisto. There has just been some fooling around on the thread along with the idea of GE buying out SUNW. Since you already know I think GE refrigerators and gas stoves are great (gggg), try to imaging Scott even wanting to be CEO of a company where he has to even hear about how the division manufacturing stoves and refrigerators is doing, what they are planning. Being head of GE would probably be more than enough to put him into a coma. You are right that being on the board of GE--or any corporation--is not a full time job. It is a real compliment, however, to even be considered for board membership to a class-act like GE. Lynn

OT: For anyone who likes using free, web based sites for e-mail, I just saw audiohighway.com's news release of today where they are now offering not only free e-mail, but (from what the article says) far more storage space than others "to receive and store up to 10 MB of text, graphic, audio and/or video files, while also allowing for attachments up to 10 MB in size on out-going e-mail messages, thereby making it ideal for sending and receiving large rich media files." Here is their web site if interested. Click on the small word "email" on the left to sign-up: audiohighway.com Here is the entire news release for anyone who is interested in the full article: biz.yahoo.com Although I know next to nothing about the company, AHWY, the one plug I can give for signing up for a free email account over there is that one's chances of getting the userid one wants is pretty darn good--I got my first choice.
