I encourage Malaysia to continue with structural reforms, improvements to the investment climate and strengthening of the financial services sector.

I don't think it's going to be a clear shot to double-digit stock fund returns for the rest of the year because financial services stocks still must show up for the party. The Federal Reserve remains the elephant in the room, and there is a building consensus that it will raise rates another quarter-point in May.

I don't think it's a wildly adventurous case, but it shows they're looking at types of competitive restraints they didn't before. I'd sort of look at the government's ability to prove that there is a harm to competition in the sense of either effects on prices, or on the offering of new services in the markets they're concerned about. This isn't a slam-dunk where you prove something and you win. This case involved the economy, and it's much more complex.

Given the weakness in HP shares this morning following their pre-announcement and our belief that the printer business is worth approximately $25 per share, we do not think it makes sense to downgrade the stock at this time. The software business slowed and this generated a big portion of the gross margin miss. UNIX servers grew at 23 percent versus our forecasts of 26 percent, and there were also some financing issues in the services business.

Global Services results are disappointing, especially a $2 billion drop in its backlog in the fourth quarter. And a 9% decline in new contract signings? That means that the biggest IBM unit is losing more business from its backlog than it is signing.

If it weren't for them mowing the lawns and doing the things they do, all the prices for services will go up. People are talking about how we'll save money on social services (without undocumented workers), but I see them working hard. They should get a fair shot at becoming legal.

If the task force adopts these reforms and we enact them this year, we should see cost savings, better patient outcomes and better services for recipients.

If we all have to buy a new device for the home that's a combination of a TV and PC, Sears is the largest seller of home appliances today in America. Whatever that appliance is, it's going to require installation, which would leverage their home services business.

If the difference is made up through cuts to public services - like transportation infrastructure, education - then the overall effect on the economy of incentives can end up being negative.

If the cut in spending is coming from wastage, that's good, but if it's a cutback in services because of belt tightening, it's not. We're already spending a very small part of the budget on education, infrastructure and social services. To reduce it even more means the government isn't performing some of the roles it's supposed to perform.

He will come out fighting but if he does retire, I would like to think he will be rewarded with an MBE for services to cricket.

He is contracted until 2008 and we are very hopeful we can secure his services for longer.

Helping to find jobs, counseling, whatever we can offer, because there's all different kinds of people here who want to give of their services or their homes, who may or may not have already given money or of their time, or clothing or whatever. So, it's really just to try to bring as many people together as we can.

We can enable customers to provide more services within the same space, power and cooling that they have today.

We can enable (customers) to provide more services within the same envelope of space, power and cooling that they have today. They don't have to add more space, more power and more cooling to add more services or run more activities on the Web.

There is a fair degree of skepticism in the industry given some of the past failures. But we are selling services to very knowledgeable customers who are looking for services that meet or exceed their expectations in terms of quality and service levels. We are working quietly with many of those providers to achieve and surpass the metrics that they set and expect.

With most customers, we have a relationship that started that way. Every financial services company, the Department of Energy--almost everyone got Linux in a nonstandard way on their own. That's not where their competence is. They've got a lot of other problems than building Linux distributions.

HP would benefit from a services acquisition. It's a great entrŽe for additional business,

HP's problems with services are not uncommon. IBM has had issues like that, too, of late.

Guilt is driven, in part, by the lack of access to information, especially during a crisis. It's brought on by trying to get through the morass of needs and decisions and not knowing what supports and services are available.

Things like that fundamentally change the way Windows works, and they couldn't really back out of them.

I think it may just be broader concern rather than a focus on what's happening to interest rates. Many of these sectors haven't done well and it's not clear what will turn them around, ...

I think it's good business to enhance any services we have, ...
