mula - <Question is will somebody step forward and do it.>

I hear Intel has some pretty good SW talent...

Just kidding, sort of.

Maybe some industrious entity will take advantage of the Merced fund to this end.

RE: "Office suit[e] ...My point is this is the chance to get out of the stran[l]ge hold of MSFT for the computing industry. Question is will somebody step forward and do it."

Hi Mula,

The underlying question is: would a VC fund something which is in MSFT's path? Answer: yes, if it's an ASP or dotcom. Probably not for shrink-wrapped.

Why are you assuming MSFT wouldn't do 64-bit?
