OT : Bill secret memo..

On this boring day, someone found Bill Super Secret Private Laptop and this is one of the secret memo ;

CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM
TO: ALL
FROM : BILL

All too often we've spelled out our so called ”anticompetitive” strategies in internal documents that are then leaked or subpoenaed. From now on, use the following acronyms for these common business practices.

DATBOOB : Drive all the bastards out of business
UTPUTCU : Undercut their prices until they cry Uncle!
CIBMILLWHIF : Clone it, but make it look like we had it first
SICTMUTS : Slip in code that messes up their software
AIRONEP : Announce imminent release of nonexistence product
BTOBTO : Beat them or buy them out
SASASAP : Smash all start-ups as soon as possible
MEDONDAA : Make exclusive deal or no deal at all
LAOSOYCHA : License all our software or you can't have any
PARPAYLAPOOD : Promote a rival product and you lose a place on our desk-top
PTOASTU : Pay them off and shut them up
HATTPAGATS : Hire all their top people and grab all their secrets
TTUFYWAPL : Tie them up for years with a phony lawsuit
BASSNOGAPOOMS : Bundle all software so no one gets a piece of our market share
DADDAO : Dump all damaging documents at once
LYSHO : Lie your silly head off
SASASLOM : Suffer a sudden and severe loss of memory
OGITWEP : Our goal is the whole enchilada, period
WWIAAWWIN : We want it all, and we want it now

Above document is written in Microspoof SecretWord ;-)

Just hope Sim can be as cocky as Bill one day. BTW, they share the same initial - W.H. Does S.I.M. stands for Soon I'm Microsoft

PR - When can we start buying? Today? Creative new corporate slogan

AWE64 D
The AWE 64 D was announced last year at Comdex. This is the chip that uses the SB link found on some motherboards. It was designed to be on the motherboard, and has been around for awhile. I believe the last NEC OEM deal that was announced about 2 months ago uses the same chip.
I thought the AWE64 D was a failed project to date, thats why the lack of news on it. Maybe prices are better now?

Its nice to see people calling the company for news on buybacks instead of speculation
