            Re:
below....Regarding this Vista, I've seen this little thing called
"Sparkle" -- a reincantation of a purely failed effort to compete
against Flash back a few years ago (it was sad).  But this time
around, Microsoft may intend to do what it has done to other
competitors regarding Adobe, and that is, to use Sparkle to "crush the
enemy Adobe by beating it over the head with the Windows Desktop".I
do believe (but am unsure and not claiming so in order to protect
myself :-) that's an actual quote by a high level exec, but a different
company as to whoe the "enemy" was, at some time, by some person, at
high levels, about another competitor, and I do believe my eyes have
seen something of this sort....but I can't be sure if it was a dream or
real :-)  But I can say no more than that...until a short
time...it will all be exposed soon enough...My Advice to Adobe:
Watch out.  Old cheeseburger loving dogs who have been found to
have broken the law don't learn new tricks (they don't change). 
And believe me $50B in cash reserves buys a lot of cheeseburgers; and
that's just cold hard cash; earned and blossomed all from the seed of a
bald-man telling IBM they had DOS _complete_ when in actuality they did
not, and instead this bald-man offered 50k to someone who wasn't aware
of this information about IBM needing what he'd developed.  The
story spawns from there.  Was that first action illegal. 
Probably not.  Dishonest - Absolutely.  Unethical -
Absolutely.This
bald-headed guy grew up just a few miles from me and taints the image
and spirit of a beautiful school called "Country Day".Question
is: Was he numbed up by his boss, or was it the other way around. 
I kind of think being caught for soliciting prostitution in Arizona,
leads me to believe it was his boss.  So, obviously these people
have no spiritual foundation and simply believe "whatever means
necessary" and "survival of the fittest".They've got some hot weather coming.Who am I talking about -- your guess is as good as mine -- not my thread.But I do plan on Establishing FLEX 
2.0 for my future development.As
Mickey softy (he's a ganster :-) fades away ever so slowly.  Long
live Bono a true and tried person who has a long track record of
helping the poor in africa; as for the other two.  I won't say it.-rchristopherjdunn <
