  In my view, this is just another sign that something is wrong with the market. Other signs are the Google stock value, and there are too many startup companies. I guess things will look different in one year.

  In the mid to late 70's my brothers went to a computer convention. They pretty much ignored the two loosers at one booth, Paul and Bill.

  By 1984, Apple had been shipping products for a bit. Bigger than IBM? I dunno. IBM had a pretty odd machine at the PC end. It looked easy to beat. In 1987, though, i bought a clone, even though i really wanted a real machine, so I also bought a Mac II. If you'd asked me six months earlier, i'd have said i'd get an Amiga. So, i can't even predict myself. I'd like to think i know something about myself.

  In 2001, i replaced my aging Mac with a Linux box. Hey, it could do word processing!

  Try this out. Now that Apple's OS/X runs on x86, and people have gotten it to run on non-Apple hardware, what do you think the odds are that Apple will sell it to people who want to run it on their own stuff (for whatever reason)?
