Jonathan: Well everyone, I'm sure you'd like to join me in thanking Michael for what was a really inspirational presentation. Sincere thanks Michael. 好了，各位。相信大家此刻都跟我一樣想要感謝Michael做的這么有啟發性的發言。謝謝了，Michael!

Jonathan: Now, I'm sure many of you will be keen to ask some questions, so I'd like to open it up a Q and A session. Please raise your hand if you have any questions at all. Janice, go ahead. 現在大家一定都有很多問題急著要提出，因此我們展開一個問答環節。想要提問的話請舉手。Janice，你說吧。

Janice: Yes thank you Jonathan. I would just like to go back to the comment Mr. Ford made in regards to our competitors, particularly Orange. Now as you know, Orange has established themselves as the market leader in the high-end lap-top market. 謝謝，喬納森。我想說一下福特先生針對我們的競爭對手，尤其是“橙子”，所作的評論。據我所知，“橙子”將自己定位為高端筆記本電腦市場的領軍企業。

Janice: How does Mr. Ford expect to compete with a company that has such a huge reputation and huge resources? 福特先生打算如何跟這樣一個聲譽高、資源廣的企業競爭呢？

Mr.Ford: Well Janice, first of all, thanks for a very good question. I think you have hit the nail on the head actually. Orange are the global leaders precisely because of their size and power. 首先感謝 Janice的問題。你問得非常中肯。“橙子”正是憑借其規模與實力成為全球領先企業的。

Mr.Ford: But, although we can't compete in terms of size I do believe we hold an advantage in terms of dedication to customer service. Yes, I admit this is a David and Goliath battle,but don't forget who won that contest. 雖然在規模上我們無法與其競爭，但在客服方面我們還是占據優勢的。我承認我們之間實力相差很大，但不要忘記誰才是真正的贏家。

Frank: Ermmm, Mr Ford. Could you elaborate on the actual technical details of the x420 a little more? 你能不能詳細地講一下x420技術方面的細節？

Mr.Ford: I'd love to but I think we are a little pressed for time right now. However Jonathan has all the technical specs for you on the powerpoint presentation, which you can look over in your own time. 我倒是很想說，但現在時間有限。技術方面的具體細節都在喬納森的幻燈片上，大家有時間可以自己看一下。

Marcie: Mr. Ford. One final question. Would you like to join me for a game of golf this Sunday? 福特先生，我還有一個專業問題：星期天要不要跟我去打高爾夫？
