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.

host, CNET Radio 910
