Jis,
I read on another thread that you had worked for Novell. I held Novell stock for a while (Schmidt was CEO) at the time.
About ten-twelve years ago, I met an interesting software guy on the Zephyr. He was coming back from a conference/trade show in San Fransisco. He grew up in New Jersey (Asbury Park area) and knew Springsteen. He and a few friends developed some software which helped in logging on. His small company was acquired by Sun Microsystems. He was made a VP at Sun.
He was raving about a company which just presented to Sun...Advanced Micro Devices. He was really impressed with what he had seen. When I got home, I bought Sun. I did not buy AMD...which tripled in a short time. What a mistake!!
I believe you're from NJ and just wondering if you may know this fellow. His passion is racing his Porche. When we reached Chicago, he took the LSL back to Connecticut where he then lived.
