Mac OS X Noted PC Magazine columnist John C. Dvorak was one of the first to predict the release of Boot Camp. His prophesizing continues in his lastest column. "A cloud is rising over Mac OS X and its future unless Apple makes its boldest move ever: turning OS X into an open-source project. That would make the battle between OS X and Linux the most interesting one on the computer scene. With all attention turned in that direction, there would be nothing Microsoft could do to stem a reversal of its fortunes."

Eh. Not so much. I can see that happening in the pretty distant future.

On other boards, I like to take a bite out of his click count by just posting the entire article. ;) Anyhow this one is a link to an ABC News reprint, so maybe that's better.

As usual, the clueless windbag is just pulling things out of his ass.

He's the Bill O'Reilly of tech journalism.

The moment I saw [John C.]Dvorak (as for the keyboard, well, I'm fond of that one) I closed the tab... and only returned to look at the comments to see if anyone else did the same... apparently I'm in good company. ;)
