Will Parker on Rob Enderle
Will Parker: "Rob, Apple has already answered that challenge. It's called a PowerBook. It's Apple's digital living room, digital back yard, digital front porch, digital out in the park, digital office, and digital down my street and digital up yours."

Denver 2004 November Election
The FasTracks proposal may end up on next fall's ballot. A recent poll shows 63% of voters in favor of raising the RTD sales tax to cover the costs of the project, according to the Rocky Mountain News [December 26, 2003, "Finding favor in FasTracks"]. From the article, "Voters in the seven counties would be asked, perhaps next fall, to approve a 0.4-cent increase in the transit sales tax, currently at 0.6 cents per dollar. The proceeds would help finance FasTracks, a comprehensive network of trains and interconnecting bus routes that would be built between 2005 and 2017. The poll found that 40 percent of the respondents said they would definitely vote yes and 23 percent would probably vote yes. Twenty-one percent said they would definitely vote no and 12 percent would probably vote no. The most opposition from a single group was from seniors, who traditionally are skeptical of tax-increase measures. Seniors were essentially split, with 48 percent favoring FasTracks and 47 percent opposed."
