FYI: Gates was a big supporter of both Clinton and Gore.
To: Shermy
Just tell Chirac how much Microsoft hates Bush and how much Linux loves Bush and Chirac will ban Linux.
To: Shermy
The Microsoft chief is to meet with Chirac at the presidential Elysee palace at 4:30 pm.Does this have anything to do with France's "Software for Whine and Cheese Program"?

Dassault Systemes is a (sniff!) very aggressive name, and so un-French.
The French may have tried to come up with a better name, but I suppose in the end, they just gave up.
Gates is cooperating with Dassault now, but will he take it over? It's a French company now, but they may end up surrending that status eventually.

Microsoft and CATIA? Wow. I can't decide which company would have the worse influence on the other.
Designing a plane with some horribly annoying paper-clip dude giving you suggestions will be perfectly great.
Are you sure you want to place a longeron their? Yes No Cancel It looks like your designing a fighter jet. Would you like a canard? Yes No Cancel
Your unmanned attack drone does not have a lavatory. Would you like to add a lavatory now? Yes No Cancel
Fan-frenchen-tastic!!!!
