I like the concept of "inflection point" and believe we just haven't seen it fully materialize with Linux yet. It's coming though, and I think Google will play a role in that moment of convergence.

Microsoft will respond by dramatically reducing the cost of the operating system, and maybe even giving it away free at some point. They know how to play that game.

I know what you mean though, I thought long ago we would rent software at video rental stores. So my track record is hardly 100% accurate.

I also thought we would buy film which turned every 35MM camera into a digital camera. Didn't pan-out either. Now digital camera's are so darn cheap they may produce throw-aways soon.
