RW, just eight years of Bush, huh? Had Gore been elected for the past eight years, we would have NEVER seen this downturn, AMIRITE? No need to respond. I already know where this is headed. Tenchusatsu

RW, more about Ballmer. I just heard some comments by Trump on CNN about the current downturn. Nothing particularly insightful; I never considered Trump to be a real visionary. Same thing with Ballmer. Now if Steve Jobs said something, I'd pay a little more attention. By the way, everyone knows how Apple sends teams into communities to see how people use products. One rumor I heard, though, is that the interface ideas of Windows Vista was based on a focus group of 12 people. Could be an exaggeration, but there's probably an ounce of truth in it. Hence my comment about how Ballmer should focus more on Windows 7. Tenchusatsu
