Speaking of bleeding from the head, here's a Gates interview in Australia from yesterday (previously posted to the SUNW thread). In addition to a direct (180 degree) contradiction of Ballmer (same day) with regard to Linux (Gates - "No competition" / Ballmer "MS's biggest competition"), Gates desperately clings to the local storage PC model as he always has, and maintains MS's business is 'software', in the past and in the future. --- Those who are expecting MS to change with the times are clearly going to be disappointed. australianit.com.au -JCJ
