Gates memo: Trustworthy Computing in full  [CNET]

Today I finished some popular training at microsoft called Percision Questioning. The basic idea is to use a very terse question and answer system for doing analytical work such as evaluating a proposal or understanding a spec. The course laid out a taxonomy of questions and focused on Clarification and Assumption questions. Questioning assumptions is fun. Once you start getting good at it, advertisments lose alot of thier effect on you, because they are often so unspecific and so loaded with assumptions that they immediatly trigger a ton of questions. "Oracle is Unbreakable", What do you mean by unbreakable? Does this include service contracts to keep it running? Can software be unbreakable?  How is unbreakable measured? Is this something that can be claimed without changing it's status? (By making the claim, ellison has invited attacks) etc.
