I don't know about. Do you really want to sit around talking with your computer?

Yes, but at what cost to average corp? what benefits? the pragmatic corporation over the next ten years will better succeed; i.e., Dell. MD will be the spokesman for the new pragmatic paradigm. gates sounds like buckminister fuller. maybe he should write a novel.

nevertheless, you may want to look at LHSPF Lernout, of which msft owns 8%, voice recognition. it's considered a "buy" at cabot money mangement (the loathsome aggressors).

MM,

PCs might sometime get to human capabilities, but I see that as a ways off. I think that the cpus would have to be in the 10G range w/100 Terabytes of ram (cpu speed) and maybe another 10K terabytes of disk. Getting to be in range now, but still a lot of programming. The biggest problem that I see is programming the ability for the computer to 'swag' (systematic wild ass guess) which we humans use quite a lot. JMHO

Regards,

Ken
