I was very pleased to see that AT&T chose the merger for their Lead
Story.
Both on Apple's plans...

Sadly, the general run of articles was rather negative, echoing the WSJ
sneer. The big question is whether Avi can deliver an SMP PowerPC
System
7.x-compatible OpenStep with a Mac UI by the end of this year. And
then,
whether Steve can add enough Java-sizzle to make corporate American take
notice...
