Jennifer Hays can be a devastating attacking threat out of the back and her versatility could have her at the left flank and scoring goals for us from that position.

Is Campbell a threat to DeLay? I find it hard to believe Mr. Campbell is going to win a primary against DeLay. But he doesn't have to win to do damage to DeLay. DeLay needs to win with a substantial number of votes, so he can demonstrate that he is the standard-bearer for his party.

Open source remains an issue for Microsoft. But I think the biggest threat is from Linux.

Overall I thought he played very very well. He's got the ability to change plays out there for us and he did some things there that I liked as well. He's such a competitor.

Our real goal was to focus on those issues in which we had a strong vested interest so that the online medium will become the mass-market medium of the 21st century, as we all believe it will.
