Gerald, I haven't read the article yet, I'll just repeat my standing position on WebTV. Very briefly, 12 lines of text. That, at full screen. Who needs it? Meanwhile, Bill's trying to set his own standard for HDTV, in conflict with the TV makers and broadcasters, which can only slow delivery of something that can do better.

I'll have to read the article though, I enjoy reading Gilder even if he's a little over the top sometimes.

Cheers, Dan.

Intel has two threats: the sub $1000 p.c, and the fact that there are no
compelling software programs on the high end that need all of that
power

For Intel to keep growing the high end power must find a use.
Interesting that Intel is hedging with Java in case their Wintel
partner keeps slowing down.

teach you in business school to stay away from legal supervision?
