Michael: CNBC follows the news - it does not create it. They just sit there and read the wires like we do while admiring themselves on their monitors. I suppose they need to be hit over the head and that will happen when all the newswires carry reports of the press conference. But you know, it is not a takeover or merger - it is just a partnership, albeit a potential lucrative one and a major strategic play in that market. I am glad the first theatre of war inlcludes the UK and Europe. It is ripe for rapid growth in technology.
