Magazine promotes Macs for digital publishing.

Digital publishing takes off and makes magazines obsolete.

Magazine promoters lose jobs.

Michael Crichton was wrong. Looks like James Cameron was the true prophet.

Man creates SkyNet.

SkyNet becomes self-aware.

SkyNet creates Terminators and destroys man.

Linux inherits the earth.

Now pet your Linux server and beg it for mercy when the time comes.

"SkyNet creates Terminators and destroys man.

I want a Windows based terminator, preferably one using an older operating system like Vista. Just as it is about to terminate me it will reboot and start applying updates 1 of 2543535 and I will have a chance to escape.

The terminator ran Apple II DOS. http://www.pagetable.com/?p=64

If you have any experience with these computers you may think we are all doomed. But because the hardware of most Apple II's was so hackable I think there is still hope.

(As long as they were not Apple //c's that is)

BTW... I still have a IIGS that runs perfectly well!

If woman inherits the Earth, she can pay the estate tax.

Which is fine with me.

Perhaps the Macworld editors saw that Apple was now starting copying what Android was already doing so they figured there was no more reason to stay in business. Hard to find enough to report when the only difference between the two is their "style", like whether object corners are rounded or not. (I kid, of course...)
