Here's a very long but interesting article for the Unix guy in all of us.

microsoft.com

It's the transcript of the meeting to announce Microsoft and Qualcom's joint venture for Wireless Knowledge and their vision for the future. I think I should do a search on Steve Balmer and read more from him as he's got this deceptively simple way of saying things.

This also reminds me that Qualcom may be a very good company to look into.

By the way, I read this for it's connection to General Magic who last week announced it would be a part of the Wireless Knowledge offering by empowering standard phones with their Portico.

Regards,

Mark

Here's an interesting article outlining Intel's near term plans for mobile pentiums. When you look at the market for palm devices and then look at what they are planning with lap tops, it's a wonder how they will make the crossover, but I guess it's their ARM products which will have to take a bigger role, leaving the Pentium's to other work.

Still, it's hard to imagine Intel and not think of it all riding on the Pentium train.

I saw where ARM has been doing well lately. Another Rambus like stock which I toyed with buying, but didn't.
