Uh, Fred... I think he was complaining about EDS.  Not that he
wouldn't have reson to complain about MS, of course.  But his comments
were directed at EDS.  I had such respect for Ross, right up until he
discovered the Republican plot to get pictures of his daughters
wedding.  I hope their current CEO can overcome these issues that Brad
is complaining about.
