Spam hitting BillG as much as anybody...

Microsoft plans to boost R&D, jobs | CNET News.com: "The billionaire co-founder of Microsoft said he normally uses rules to filter his in-box, but in a lighthearted moment he showed several pieces of spam that slipped through.

One that was particularly intriguing, he quipped, was an offer to solve his legal problems for just pennies a day.

Comment: Oh yeah and they plan to boost their r&d effort by 8%, creating 3000-3500 jobs in the US and another 1500-2000 else where, I suspect in India since they have a large contingent outthere now for quite some times..."
