    "Microsoft (MSFT) has for all intents gone silent. All this can mean only one thing: A deal between the two has to be getting ever closer."

    Possibly. But not necessarily. People seem to keep forgetting that this merger absolutely DOES NOT benefit EITHER company or their respective shareholders. If it DOES look like it's going forward, expect numerous shareholder lawsuits.

    "Morgan Stanley's Stephen Roach, one of the world's leading economists, says the oncoming U.S. recession will dwarf the dotcom slump in its magnitude."

    I'm not an economist; just a small time investor, but I hope it weighs in smaller than the tech crash. There's more inherent value here--houses and land have some inherent value-- than we saw with the excesses of the dot com era.

    "AGAIN no bailout for the countrywide band of hoodlums"

    The crook CEO of Countrywide reaped 100 Million instead of a well-deserved prison term. In China, he would have been executed, probably. I blame the GOP. It happened under their watch; they are the guys who are always looking the other way when it comes to oversight or regulation. Happened before-- the Keating 5.

    "IBM/AMD tie-up "nothing but speculation."&quo...

    Even IBM couldn't be THAT dumb, to buy AMD.

    "Interesting that Walt Mossberg, a huge apple fan, gave it a very mediocre review"

    Mossberg's a "lawful neutral" (to use D&D jargon); not a huge Apple fan. The MacBook Air is for road warriors ONLY. I'm not in that group, either.

    iPhone shortfall: I think they'll make the 10M by the end of 2008 without breaking a sweat. But, they need to hit additional markets. Note Nokia did well by tapping Asia, EU, and Latin America; the iPhone is still mostly US.
