<<  Do we want Carly to say "we sell computers that run Unix, Windows, and
  MPE/iX" or do we want to hear "we sell computers that run Unix, Windows,
  Airlines, Credit Unions, HMOs, and Your Business(tm)"?  Hmmm, I like that:

     Sun: "We sell computers that run Unix!"
     Microsoft: "We sell computers that run Windows!"
     HP: "We sell computers that run your business."  >>

  I don't want Carly to say anything but to listen to the mortals out there.

  I think that we want computers that understand the English Language and can do what
we want them to do without any misteries or high learning curves or silly syntax. Just our
everyday words should be sufficient for the computer to understand and carry on with
 the task.   

In other words.   Engineers have ruined the gig making it overly complex since the beginning 
of computer time.

Once we achieve that.  Everything will pan out fine.  Or is it just too simple of a problem
to be solved by the big computer companies?
