Man, I just have this nagging song in my head by Night Ranger, Rumors, because of all the rumors flying around on Wall Street of the possibility of Palm, Inc. buying out PalmSource. I don’t know what I dislike more, the Night Ranger song that won’t go away or the rumor that’s driving up [...]

Ever seen that movie called Golden Child, with Eddie Murphy?
