Microsoft's Ballmer preaches gospel of the rich client
,----[ Quote ]
| With Microsoft and Intel we are the holy trinity - Jerry Sanders III,
| ex-CEO of AMD
|
| [...]
|
| Microsoft is a rich server and Intel and AMD are rich clients. The
| rest of us are unlikely to be enriched by their "innovations"
| because pretty soon if you want to buy a PC you're going to be
| practically forced to buy one with Vista, and with dual cores,
| quadruple cores and the rest, simply because the vendors, the
| distribution chain, the ISVs and the ODMs are all firmly pledged
| to keep their snouts in the Windows trough. And the use of
| "innovation" here is quite simply a synonym for nothing new at all.
