I'll take that bet, because CBM is on tour right now with Scala, going to corporations like the one I work for and saying "You haven't seen multimedia until you see this"; and the demos are blowing people away (hearts fluttered where I work because they SPECIFICALLY demonstrated InfoChannel 400, which on an A4000 is an under-$10K package that does the VERY THING my employer is trying to do with a system THEY expect to sell for a HUNDRED thousand dollars) — and in THIS regard they're attempting to position themselves against Apple, NOT Microsoft. Yeah, C= HAS an "amazing, cheap" etc, etc; the question is, Will Big Business Buy It? (And will the companies that laugh it off find out what GM found out when they laughed at Japan?)
