The people who are most enthusiastic about this are Hewlett-Packard and IBM. They just love this. I would argue that for 99 percent of business reasons there are very few cases where you really need it. There are instances where it is needed, but they are the exception, not the rule. |
The percentage of customers who say they are actively looking to replace Microsoft has gone up. When it comes down to it, some people aren't going to be able to do it (migrate off of Windows and Office). But where Microsoft can be replaced, it's become a real fashionable thing to do. |
The philosophy of the game, they way we play here in Phoenix, it's really unselfish. A lot of passes, a lot of shots, a lot of up and down. The game is faster, too. When I'm on the court I'm able to read better and make passes to my teammates because I know where they're going to be. |
The picture is vastly improved from that of two or three years ago due to the fine work done by EAC, NIST, and state and local governments. The states are working as fast as they can against deadlines coming up in early 2006 and most are making solid progress towards those deadlines. |
The postponement of Dell's analysts' meeting from April to September, while bound to create more uncertainty about the timing and scope of Dell's changing model, is probably a reality check on how much Dell needs to accomplish before it can feel confident about execution and results. |
The presence of our forces in Iraq is not unlimited. The administration's repeated statements that we will stay in Iraq as long as needed sends the wrong message. We should not mislead the Iraqis into thinking that they have unlimited time to reach a broad-based political settlement. |

The president's National Security Strategy charts the way forward along the path of confidence. It is a strategy of leadership. It is a strategy of partnership. It is a strategy that protects America's vital interests, reflects America's history and promotes America's highest ideals. |
The price increases are at levels that are catastrophic for most people. Everybody you talk to is saying that they have to cut down on other expenses just to put gasoline in their car or to pay their utility bills. And I can't predict that prices are going to go down. I wish I could. |
The primary reason I did it is because the university, in my opinion, has been under a lot of pressure by the people who are responsible for this. If giving up those two days, which costs me about $650, (allays) concerns that I'm wasting taxpayer dollars, then I'll gladly give it up. |
The pro-82 campaign is having a tougher time now that the 'no' side has gotten under way and is raising a lot of legitimate questions. This is not about our commitment to children. It's about whether this measure is the right way to go about it, and we've made the case that it's not. |
The productivity advance will also serve as a powerful backstop for the U.S. dollar, as it creates an environment that is good for the rates of return on U.S. assets, especially compared to other countries where both productivity growth and economic growth are lower than in the U.S., |
The public has very little access to reliable information if they're not reading the scientific journals. All of the panelists thought it was important to convey with precision the major challenges in the areas of food, water, energy, and health, and I think they did a beautiful job. |
The question I was asked before the season was, 'Would you be disappointed to not be in the Sugar Bowl?' ... I can tell you, I would never be disappointed to take a team to the Rose Bowl. To play in that stadium -- outdoors, on grass, in the sunshine -- how could you be disappointed? |
The real estate transaction is fairly complex and one of the advantages of using a professional is that they are knowledgeable of the market and they have the ability to negotiate the contract agreement. They ensure that all the details that people tend to overlook are taken care of. |
