...companies we've studied we did not find villains. I think that's very important. These were smart, well-intentioned people trying to make the right call. To me, that's even more sobering: hardworking people who are often full of tremendous imagination and energy can still bring enterprises down. I know villains are more fun to write about, but it's not what we found...
...really fair, of course, to compare the iPhone to the Palm Pre, which went on sale Saturday. The Pre is the first smart alternative to the iPhone, but it's still only an infant at this point. It's like comparing a baby to a 35-year-old - one is full of potential, but the other is already making its mark on the world.

...Independent Group Home Living Foundation, a nonprofit that supports people with disabilities. (Palin's fifth child, Trig, has Down syndrome.) "They have been all over the map for the most part since the election," says a former GOP aide who worked with Palin. "But this trip has been smart." Perhaps it seemed that way at first, but the dinner snafu has given further fuel to GOP critics, who wasted no time in seizing on it as further evidence that Palin is a political amateur...
