Risaeðlan Microsoft og Billi Viðutan
Ég vil vekja athygli á stórgóðri grein á The Register. Smá útdráttur:
Bill’s particular brand of foresight is overlooked. He’s lauded for urging Apple to license its GUI because graphical interfaces were the future. As he wrote this, every personal computer available to the public, except the IBM PC, offered a graphical user interface. Bill’s 1995 book the Road Ahead describes a world of connected computers - connected through walled-garden behemoths like CompuServe and his own MSN Network - and doesn’t mention the internet once.
