I agree with all of you! My biggest beef with the XP system was all the bubbly "war and fuzzy feelings" interface. Simple is better. I guess that is why I use Solaris more than I use my Window box.
I bought a Video IPOD on Monday at $395 and by Thursday the 9th, the price had already dropped by $50.00. I was also listening to the C|Net Buzz Podcast and they stated that the release of the IPOD was a rumor, but a price drop in the virtually new V Ipod almost confirms it. My question is, won't the touch screen be a true pain. The smudges are going to drive viewers nuts!
I once did a fellow ship with these guys in 00 and was really impressed with their product. I was at the main campus that one day in April when the CEO gathered all of the employees into the cafeteria just off the yellow brick road and told the employees exactly how much trouble they were in when their stock completely tanked. It is really sad considering some of their hardware (Onyx and Origin) were not only innovative, but kick a$$ as well. Hopefully someone will pick them up. I would like to see Sun gobble these guys up and take control of their machines!
