When Bill Gates revealed in mid-2003 that he was returning to his roots, so to speak, and spending half of his time on what was then still called Longhorn, we should have seen the warning signs. Sadly, Gates, too, is part of the Bad Microsoft, a vestige of the past who should have had the class to either formally step down from the company or at least play just an honorary role, not step up his involvement and get his hands dirty with the next Windows version. If blame is to be assessed, we must start with Gates. He has guided--or, through lack of leadership--failed to guide the development of Microsoft's most prized asset. He has driven it into the ground.

en The success of the show provided me with amazing opportunities to visit so many wonderful places and meet so many wonderful people. When I was only 13 years old, I had been to 40 places.

en The win also reflects well on the faculty, department and university. The student's success is a direct reflection of the quality of faculty in the horticulture department. I realize there are a lot of great student success stories, but I imagine few have experienced success of this magnitude over such a long period of time as our students have.

en I don't think it's wise to bet against Microsoft in anything they do. I know that (CEO Bill) Gates is personally involved in the success of this project, ... My job is to make sure we're not overexposed on one particular platform, but that we are ready when a platform does explode.

en [The government viewed the videotape as part of a successful strategy, although Boies had a hard time explaining the relevance of some of the material played Monday. He said it was important to determine what the company's chief decision maker was thinking in January 1996, when Microsoft was changing its strategy with regard to the Internet.] This case is not about Bill Gates, ... It's about Microsoft. ... But as the central figure, the chief executive, and decision maker, what he says matters a lot.

en With the Department of Justice process out of the limelight now, investor attention has been squarely focused on Microsoft's business fundamentals over the past several months.

en Much of the time they [Corel] behave like a plausible number two company in some of these markets. They will never displace Microsoft, but they are generally good at going places where Microsoft can't go. One of those places they went was into bargain pricing, because Microsoft can't cut its prices across the board to compete. They continuously find points of vulnerability at Microsoft. Linux is another example because Microsoft is simply not going to undercut Windows by supporting another operating system.

en Tremendous strides have been made in a short time, and it's looking very promising. This is going to be one of the success stories of the Endangered Species Act.

en They are all coming to the show and we'll have a little catch-up backstage. We're not in Sydney for very long this time: it's a lightning visit.
