There's a Scientific American profile of Michael Dertouzos in the July 1997
issue. Also a decent article "taking computers to task" - the picture
shows a dude running Pointcast and some VC program. They say some of the
"overhyped technologies" are video conferencing and agents. Check it out:

(Thanks to JoeK for finding the bits.)

Oh, and I liked Wired's cover story last month of 101 ways to save Apple.
Favorite way mentioned: hire someone named Dr. Ernie from FoRK!!!
