if the rule stays true that performance doubles every 18 months then machines
will have increased in performance by a frightening factor over 100 years... If they
still require humans It'll probably be for batteries ;) And the bloody program
should be able to fix itself... Java will run like lightning and even VB will be
usable (well performance-wise anyway)...
