Hello, my name is Andy Grove (really...trust me, everything you ever read on the internet is *TRUE* especially investment related information)

A long time ago, I met up with Michael Dell in a spitting contest in upper Utah. I told Michael. "Say boy, you trying to outdo me?" Mike coughed up an oyster with the girth of a walnut, projected it outward in a beautiful arc and landed it right on one of my wingtips.

"Nah, just waiting for that 1000mhz pentium-3 with onboard dishwashing capabilities you promised last fall"

"Don't hold your breath" I replied, and popped the top on my last remaining Foster's Lager. Wiping the foam from my upper lip I told Mike that it was a bit much to ask since nobody could yet load the Whirlpool romdec in a 64 bit cache.

"128K dedicated cache is the answer Andy"...as he spun around to take a whiz on a nearby tree. "I never said Bill would go for the Whirlpool operating system integrated browser....besides, all the dishes keep falling out of the DVD tray"

Epilogue....Mike doesn't do Windows, Andy doesn't do dishes, and Bill can't even *GIVE* away a browser without being taken to court. Ha! Go figure, free enterprise at it's best!

Now *THAT* was an off-topic message!

Cheers~!
