"I, Cringely" is a collaborative effort between Robert X. Cringely, PBS Online and Oregon Public Broadcasting. The views expressed in "I, Cringely" are the heartfelt feelings of Robert X. Cringely, and should be taken as such. That is why this column is called, "I, Cringely." These are not necessarily the views of PBS. If these were the views of PBS, this column would be called, "PBS Cringely." Or something like that, only catchier. © Copyright 1998-2003, PBS Online.
