1.  It has been our policy to freely and openly discuss information that =
falls into our hands by means other than HP controlled channels.

2.  I see nothing at all sensitive in Fred's presentation.  It is a =
straightforward marketing approach, not a technology push as in the =
past.   And it will fail if HP tries to imitate TI, Casio, Gold Star, or =
Shu-Ping Electric.

3.  Where do you get the idea that WE are THEIR community?  They left us =
five years ago for greener pastures.  This resulted in stripping =
capability out of their machines, rather than adding it.

. . . Richard =20

(I still can't get my Palm on-board resource editor to work right, but =
if I ever do make it work, a floodgate of engineering apps will open.)
