No worries. Ballmer has nothing but lawyers. Not intellect. No property. Even
*lawyers* could not save the ship, which is sinking due to poor management
and development. The departure of the Office head, which is yet to lead
Windows Vista(gnating) makes you wonder if it is related to the one-year
delay of Office (see today's headlines). They can only swap forces while
employees resign and go somewhere with better prospects.

best wishes,

Roy
