    c'mon! If turning around Disney = a miracle, then you could call any person with half a brain "jesus". Jobs may be the tech geek du jour, but lets not get carried away here...

    Who said anything about a miracle? One would have to associate Jesus with miracles which I am certainly not. But I like the algorithm ;)

    That being said, Disney's business/culture issues run a lot deeper than making cute movies. You have a disheveled board, a family with a lot of influence, Michael Eisner once worked for your company, a stock that hasn't moved in 10 years, piracy, Pixar didn't come cheap, new players in the market, blah, blah, blah.

    Jobs is the man, and I'm not even sure what kind of power he will weild over the board, but he now owns a lot of Disney stock. I can't imagine he will stay quiet for long.

    Is Buddha ok?

Whe I get the 25% of it something cut the donwload of the file and itunes get the 100 of my computer resources.(Maybe the reason is that I am conecting from Europe and not from EE.UU) But at the same time I was able with no problem to get de audio mp3 commencement file from the itunes.
