Ballmer could be elected President of the US and you won't see any more splits until Microsoft produces competitively priced quality products. What Dell said during his teleconference was the vibrant start up companies were choosing Linux. They don't have the fat budgets of the IT divisions of established companies that automatically buy Microsoft products. They are in the majority now but as they compete against the newcomers they'll have to change too. It's the IBM syndrome all over again. Harvey Allen

Interview with George W. Bush FT: I want to talk about entrepreneurs. You make a big thing about how entrepreneurs create wealth, not governments. One of the cases that has most alarmed entrepreneurs, particularly in Silicon Valley, is the government's case against Microsoft. A lot of people in Silicon Valley say that harms entrepreneurs.
