I wonder how Bill Gates and the MSNBC folks feel about having Scott McNealy on the board of GE.

He's thinking...
A: I should have stayed in school.
and
B: I should have learned to golf.

On a legacy note...

...In the short term perhaps Microsoft only overcharged
consumers $20 per operating system (and perhaps another $50 on Microsoft Office, etc.). But $20 times
200,000,000 computers is not a trivial monopoly overcharge.


Cha-ching.

Charles, I think a lot of people, not limited to those at CNBC and MSFT, are starting to take McNealy more seriously as a result of his appointment to the GE board. You don't get an appointment to the board of a company like GE unless you're well regarded. This, IMHO, can only have a positive effect on SUNW stock. I view the appointment as some of the most important news I've heard about SUNW.
