the advertising for the "visual pc" is out for bid.i forget the $figure, but it's quite substantial by SGI standards. SGI has never put much faith in advertising under McCracken. why do you think SGI would get exposure from Olimpics coverage? my take is that previous sports applications have not led to substantial sales, certainly not of servers. HP has used advertising quite effectivly to dominate the printer market. will this tool become part of SGI's strategy?

<<Perhaps the Olympics will provide more support and exposure for SGI>>

Yes, I expect Rick Beluzzo to do really well in the giant slalom competition.
