>>> Pete is the most visionary person I have ever met. I never heard him predict something that did not come true. Like Gates, he isn't thinking about today or next year; he is thinking about where the company will be 3-10 years out. It's not only what Mr. Kight says but what he has been able to execute. This is not an easy business and lots of bigger players have tried and failed. It's the execution and ability to be ahead of the trends that we on the thread see materialize six to twelve months after the company. That's what makes me an investor. Dave PS. Per some earlier posts, it appears that IBM is teamed with TANDEM in real time, fault-tolerant, transaction processing systems. Is GENESIS built with TANDEM as a participant. I still consider them to be the best in that area.
