I normally like his stuff but anyone reading this one in about 5 years
will wonder what on earth he was babbling about. Sure, a lot of amusing
stuff in there but well, BeOS tanked (much to my regret), none of his
criticisms of MacOS are relevant anymore now that OS X is here and very
much the future of the Mac (whatever that turns out to be) and I have
to say that I think he painted a rather distorted picture of the Linux
world.

Well, my 2 cents anyway,

mark.
