    Hi All,

    I'm just curious if anyone knows what happened to Project Alameda at
    Sun? This was supposed to be the Java-based, cross-platform version of
    Watson (the rights to which were acquired by Sun about a year ago).

    I was really excited about Watson finally coming to the PC... but the
    last mention of it I can find was from last June:

    So, like where'd it go?

    Thanks!
