    Declan,
    
    I just did an interesting interview today with the founder of Cadence 
    Design Systems, Jim Solomon.  Thats the company which several former Avant 
    executives, including CEO George Hsu are alleged to have swindled out of 
    source code in the early 1990's.  The criminal trial just got underway 
    today in San Jose.
    
    www.cnetradio.com has the interview archived under the 'Afternoon Show with 
    Tracy Romine' heading.  It will be up thru tomorrow afternoon.
    
    Solomon apparently felt very comfortable sharing his opinions on the case, 
    and why he is certain Hsu should 'go down'.  Because has since moved on to 
    Xulu Entertainment, Cadence attornies haven't gagged Solomon.
