[...somewhere down the road, I won't need the next generation of software, since I won't be using any of the 'new and improved' whatsits, and I will just continue to use the old computer! ] Don't we all dream of that day, and of course it's MSFTs nightmare, given that much of their revenue is derived from upgrades. Its one reason the Internet craze has been such a godsend to MSFT share-holders. Gives everyone a compelling reason to upgrade. Personally, I don't see this plateau happening in the OS for a good many years, but it may be a problem for the application suites. How many people really need voice recognition? It will be interesting to see.
