Hmm, interesting isn't it. Considering the companies are not suppose to
"do anything together" how the HELL do you delvelop Software if you can't
develop it for a Platform?
Does that mean all future Office products will not work on the MS-Windows -
because they aren't allowed to JV or have any relationship?
Maybe the media is just poorly interpreting all of this.

into Hardware??
Then again, maybe the Mini-Bills will buy Intel and AMD ??
