I see a lot of trademark liberties, impersonation, and copyright
infringement going on...  Is this an unprecedented rocking of the
MPE foundations (in terms of the public personas of the perpetrators)
or what?...

... And a bit of "big government" thrown in for good measure...

What will these clever MPE marketing folks "think of" next?  This time,
they got "MPE" (even capitalized :-) on CNET.  I can't wait to see
MPE expanding its reach.  "Who" knows?  It is entirely possible that
two of the hottest women executives in the industry might even mention
"MPE".  Will they mention it in lower-case only?  Will they flash a
broad smile of deep satisfaction & pride as they proudly refer to
HP's very own OS invention, MPE?  Will they say that, up to this point,
they knew   N O T H I N G   about MPE?  Will they qualify this with
a big "hehehe"?

Oh, boy!
