Brian, I write QUALCOMM because that is the company name. Not Qualcomm. Same as IBM is not Ibm. That's just how company law and names work. Maybe it seems odd to you, but that's how it works. Maybe it was a cunning ploy by QUALCOMM Incorporated to stand out more, but that was their choice. I've adopted it lately because I figure it's the name so I might as well use it.

Meanwhile, you are privileged to be the first person I have ever put on 'ignore'... some of you Johnycomelately newbies on SI are so obnoxious and so lacking in any sense of fun! Try to be a bit more civil. I don't think I'd like to come to one of your dinner parties - I guess there is a lot of abuse and thrown food which we superior upper-class people find a little tedious.

I suppose you got weird because of ANTI-CAPSLOCK MANIA; some people dreading CAPSLOOK more than lurgy.

Maurice

PS: How come your first post this year was such stuff? Got any thoughts about Nokia, CDMA and stuff? Maybe others would like to read them.
