Neste fim de semana prolongado risquei mais um item da minha TODO-LIST pessoal, fui passá-lo aos Açores à Ilha de São Miguel. A expectativa era alta mas a experiência não desiludiu, este pedaço de terra plantado no meio do oceano é um exemplo vivo das maravilhas que a natureza tem e do que este País tão frequentemente se esquece.

But given a better look, first it’s impressive the level of preparation and antecipation this company has, second I’m quite sure Jobs knows exactly where he’s heading, and third I’m also sure will turn this apparent hatch on the Apple religious culture and into a surprising feed of innovation and good news over these left months before the first Intel Inside sticker comes with a Powerbook (yaks, ugly).
I’m also very curious about IBM reactions on this.
They could have bought Transmeta btw, it was sold cheap to a Japanese Comic Books company
