you should see AMD's headquarters in Sunnyvale. It's a real dump.

The white house? I haven't been by in many years but I find that hard to believe. Jerry never would have let it get that way...

At least Intel seems to realize what they need to do, finally.

> Most of my gaming these days is on my iPad.

Games are the biggest app category. And early on I totally didn't get it. I have never really "gotten" gaming.

Back in the 80s, I had a guy come to me to get his taxes done. He was an old retired engineer, totally FOS and consumed too much time. But one year he said, "By the way, I brought my kid's taxes. " Then he got to telling me how his kid was studying computer science, working with games. I said, "Well, you'd better tell him to learn something else. Business applications are where the money is."

I won't name the kid but if you do much gaming you've probably heard of him.

I find that what I'm working on today starts to look more and more like games. On iOS, just about everything has to. I'm just about 40 years behind on the concept.
