Christopher,

Well sure I expect the usual flames from many of the longs that is just the way these threads operate. As far as MSFT, my interest is only in the stock. I will dump it if things change, in fact, I think it is temporarily overbought. I said earlier I say whatever I believe, and I don't think these threads have any influence whatsoever on a big cap like SUNW or MSFT. If I was trying to talk down the stock and I thought I could influence the price, I would be much more serious about it, and I would post about every hour on the hour. But again, I don't think it is possible.

Anyway it is probably better that you didn't answer, it probably would have agitated some of your friends.

Dale

Intel hedges bets

In general, Intel's growing interest in Unix flavors is due to a sorely lacking presence in the higher segments of the server market, according to Nathan Brookwood, an analyst at Insight64, in Saratoga, Calif.

And when Intel goes up against the likes of Sun Microsystems running Solaris on Sparc or Digital Equipment running Digital Unix on Alpha, it loses.

"Intel is not losing to the competition because the chip is slower, but because the OS is slower," said a source who asked not to be named. "The customer doesn't just throw out NT, however. They throw out the chip with it."
