...long. Now, at (long) last, a new generation of managers, like Jeff Bezos of Amazon and Tim Koogle of Yahoo, Steve Case of America Online and Tom Jermoluk from @Home, has emerged to do exactly that, through aggressive acquisition strategies, massive infrastructure spending and expansion at a clip that would make old-line companies get motion sickness. These young chieftains have shown a true disdain for the next quarter's results. In fact, Amazon's Bezos went so far as to urge those concerned with short-term performance to sell his stock, something no one else has ever done...

Instead, they can expect "sloppy clip jobs" from previously known scandals and " a handful of uncorroborated charges" made against Republicans.

Sterile and deafeningly quiet, the Science Center terminal rooms offer everything from ancient Macs that still require a paper clip to extract your floppy disk, to the Digital Alpha workstations with their gargantuan monitors. A word to the wise: don't check your e-mail on these mothers the night before CS51 assignments are due. Office isn't installed on those bad boys anyway.
