        They're failing? I wouldn't mind failing like that any day now.
        
        I think MS goes where the money is. They have a good feel for the 
        marketplace which IBM does not - despite it's minions of high 
        priced analysts. IBM keeps trying to change the market, MS flows 
        with it.
        
        You give the consumer (the little guy) what he wants and all is 
        well.
