Take a look at the author of this one: Dvorak. He has been predicting
Apple will have to move to windoze any day now just to survive.
Problem is he has been doing this for around 15 or so years.
When Apple wrings the last bit of goodness out of *nix that they can
get, they will move to something else, but I doubt it will be windoze
-- an OS that is still trying to catch up to where *nix has already
been. Dvorak would be better off speculating that Apple's new OS
(when and if they ever change) would be able to run older apps like
some you could find that used windoze.
