Catching up

It's nice to see old friends and colleagues. I always worry about it being awkward and uncomfortable, but people seem to change less than one would expect.

I think I'm just nosy so I like to know what people are up to. :)

It's amazing that it's almost a year since I left MS. Really doesn't seem that long.

Lexus show room

Brought my car in for a tune up today. Went in for 30 wipers, left with a 1,500 tune up. You can see where that money goes - xbox and wii in the show room. These guys are crazy.

Buy your way to success

On one hand I feel bad for the employees of MSN/Live who basically got a slap in the face today from their leadership - it's pretty clear that the execs are tired of losing. On the other hand, I'm pretty surprised to see MS get over the NIH syndrome that plagues all innovation driven companies - kudos to calling the emperor naked.

$44B = $20B MS has in cash/ST investments + 1.5 quarters of cash flow ($15B)

MS is just a cash printing machine... they should just buy Oracle next....
