This is a Sun/open systems list - with no "looking over our shoulders".
Who cares? The legions of dolts who blindly push along the microslime 
cattlechute will tell you what you want to know. Factory programmers - 
but is it not they who are getting 'grammed? (.. using "Visual Braille")
Take a guess- 16 bit shackles, msOS only for development and API's, O-LAY, 
monolithic-app kneecap-sucking (office web-widgetizer), yadda, yadda...

And who cares about marketshare...it's Intel that has the pie, not ms; 
the OS's are slipping out into...what? You tell me- we're creating it now.
OOP, bytecode, extensible, agent-environment, mmm, the bleeding network 
is the computing machine, to quote one company or another.

Forgive the excess, but hey, opportunity knocked.
