Amy, re: I think Intel needs to get a female executive from any of the consumer markets onto their Board Like Jill Barad? Jill Barad, the woman who turned Barbie into a $1.7 billion business, resigned as chairwoman and CEO of Mattel Inc. Thursday following a string of disappointing quarters. Barad's resignation came after Mattel's board met in New York to discuss the latest dismal quarter, in which the toymaker lost $18.4 million. Things have gone steadily downhill for Mattel since its $3.5 billion acquisition of The Learning Co. went sour last year. wired.com

On another note, there's a little buzz around Intel's TV screen (forgot what it's called - lcos? rhymes with lowcost.) It's interesting that the people interested in them seem to be parents with children. Reminds me of the color printer story, to a small extent. I ran the "liquid crystal on silicon" by some guys who install high-end video equipment. Their reaction? Nothing new. No excitement on their part.
