Now I know that to some of you Microsoft is a bad word. And, to some it is the key to why computers are where they are at to this day. But, here is something to think about; what if Microsoft decided to close down the Operating System side of the house. In other words they would shut down “Windows” OS, but maintain the rest of the software and hardware divisions already in place. Now to ensure that the two present systems (Vista and XP) continue on they would agree to keep open a small portion of the Windows teams to ensure that all problems for the next three years would be covered, however they would no longer work on a new OS.
Now here are the questions:
Who would step up to fill this void, Apple or Linux?
Would IBM attempt to revise an early attempt at an OS?
Does Sun Micro Systems have an OS ready to put into place?
Is there possibly another OS in the works just looking for a place to land?
And, here is a question hopefully someone can answer:
Why hasn’t Apple released it's Mac OS to the general public?
If they did, how many of you would jump at the chance to use the Mac OS.
Just thinking,
