Microsoft's Windows Is a Glacier That Won't Melt Fast

The same things were said about Apple a few years ago. They were a company with only a few die hard geeks who kept the company alive.
I think every big company has some flops. Obviously Vista is no XP. I really think Microsoft wanted a clean break from the past with Vista. But they got cold feat or preasure from third party vendors. Apple has more control over their hardware and software so clean breaks are much easier. They pretty much just say to the venders take it or leave it. Microsoft needs to do the same.

It's Now 'Official': Ethanol Is a Scam

Americans are always quick to embrace a well sold solution. Who could complain about something that would help the farmer's. Except for the fact that it would backfire on everday consumer's who end up paying more for food and still have high gasoline prices. Has it really helped anyone but the farmer's and ADM???

Can Apple Sell 45m iPhones By End of 2009?

My only question is not about Apple selling 45 million phones. But if that many people want AT&T. Apple would have a much easier time selling phones if they opened them up to every carrier.

Market Outlook: Watch Out, the Signs Can Be Deceiving

I think the markets do little to predict what really is happening. Just look at how oil is going these days. I think the Bearns and Sterns problems indicate how you can look great one day and in the toliet the next. Deception appears to run rampent in the markets these days.
I myself cannot imagine investing in any stocks for fear some rumor or hint at impending doom would crash the stock. The markets also do little to impress the average Joe who does not even own stock. Joe's concern is that is job will be eliminated or that his gas bill will replace his mortagage as his highest bill for the month.
