Irrational Exuberance Is Back In Full Force ...

eBay conceded it had grossly overpaid for Skype by about $1.43 billion.

eBay's Meg Whitman is largely credited to getting irrational exuberance back to silicon valley by acquiring Skype for $3.1 billion. Thank you Ms. Whitman.

Apple continues its onslaught with new product rollout every month, almost, in 2007. After got bumped by iPhone, Leopard is finally prowling into the spotlight on October 26, with 300 plus new features. And thank god there is only one version. I can never figure out what Vista one should buy or not buy. Is it home basic or home premium, is it business or ultimate? What the fuck?

Jobs has also just confirmed that there will be an SDK for iPhone/iPod Touch in February next year. Some hackers must be very very disappointed, where is the challenge now? Where is the underground allure of hacking the forbidden?
