Steve Ballmer announced that Longhorn will be able to run Linux virtually. As I read this I couldn't help but think about Greek myth of Daedalus who flew too near the sun. The wax in his wings melted and he fell to his death. "We've worked very closely with Sun. Yes, the Sun that we never worked closely with before," ~ Ballmer Although I have too agree it is sweet and very tempting, it is dangerous ground.

I'm sure all of us are hard working, very dedicated employees who sometimes throw ourselves too deeply into our work. We get the in-the-zone and we are off on the trail of the solution to the problem. Stepping away from the screen when your in hot pursuit can be very difficult.
