RSD, it is a great article and a must read. What goes around comes
around. Screw Netscape and others with draconian business practices
and terms and conditions and you become an open target. I had always
considered JAVA to be one of the main cornerstones of the bracketing
of MSFT but now there is another lock with Linus. I do question the
assumptive theory that "each doubling is just as difficult as any
other doubling". The point they are trying to make is that if they
grew exponentially at this rate they will continue to do so but I dont
believe that is valid. Doubling a small number within a finite
universe of users is easier than doubling a larger number within that
same universe when the universe is not growing as exponentially as the
component from within. So it will be harder to double again the more
times they double. That said, it is still impressive and the key is
to figure out how to invest long term into this paradigm shift. So,
everyone put your thinking caps on and lets have some ideas!
