You got it right Lizzie. Why would anyone spend years in college and thousands of dollars getting into a business that is being outsourced?

wow PC mall is really going all out on the configured macbooks with preinstalled windows option. It costs about $60 extra on the Macbook Pro, and about $100 on the Mac Books. pcmall.com pcmall.com At first I thought they were just doing this for the pc mall side, but the macmall is the same.

yeh - competition from overseas did change the software picture somewhat ... glad I was born when I was! But even if that weren't true, most bright kids still would have to find a way around the ugly turn-off stuff you probably have to learn in highschool-college as prerequisites for a future in software. By the way, the 'opteron team' came to AMD from the old DEC/VAX designers, the first-and- only-for-awhile 64 bit chip. It is( until recently?) still the top performance chip in many ways.
