Hmmm...  My kneejerk reaction to that is, "Wasn't Bill already in the fun
part?"  After all, he just likes to make money.  He personally has
demonstrated or technical expertise or vision.  Unless BASIC can be considered
state-of-the-art...

But I hear ya!  Marc Andreesen had the right idea, *and* the technical
expertise, to bail out when he did.  Not to mention the money.  :-,
