Michael, thats fascinating and I don't doubt for a moment that it will happen. I think the only limit in this technology is imagination.... Just think, down the road I'll be able to sit here and talk with my computer and then I won't need to talk on the threads. "Horrible thought, ug..." Oh well, thats the price of progress... :)

Michael: Just found this thread today...was led here from George Gilder ASAP thread. Simple question? Do you folks want to talk stocks, philosophy, market strategy, what?? Certainly don't want to horn into a cozy little group. Thanks, Don

Michael, I must say that I wasn't surprised to hear Bill's comments about the future of computer interfaces. One of the things I love about it is that this is the world's richest man who is saying it and that he is putting his money where his mouth is - a large amount of money is on the table now to see that we get to that vision. I don't doubt that he will succeed in spite of whatever DOJ interference and consequent diversion of assets and attention dealing with that issue will cause. Actually, I suppose this litigation is unfortunately necessary because the question is so vital to the future of both Microsoft and operating system innovation such as he envisages. Pray for judicial wisdom and insight. Barry
