Hi, > [snip of everything that's gone before] There's an interesting article at XML.com. It's a talk that Tim O'Reilly gave in Tokyo at a Linux convention. In the article he points out that he believes there's a new revolution in computing going on - not software, not hardware, but a shift to web sites as the "killer app" and that all of the focus of the Linux users on "beating MS at the desktop" is totally misplaced when they should be focusing on what is to come. http://xml.com/pub/1999/10/tokyo.html Anyway, I think this is a nice contrast to what Brett normally talks about (not focusing solely on the server and taking on the desktop) - whether it has any merits I'll leave to you the reader. :-) Brett ***************************************************** Dr. Brett Taylor brett@peloton.runet.edu * Dept of Chem and Physics * Curie 39A (540) 831-6147 * Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics * Walker 234 (540) 831-5410 * ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
