prediction

There will be a several year gap between Windows XP and longhorn, or whatever they're calling the next release. Similarly it'll be a while before Intel's next line comes out. Respectively, linux (and OSX) and AMD's Opteron will incredibly damage the market share of Microsoft and Intel. Even when Intel & Microsoft finally do release their products it'll be too late. It'll get them back into the game, but they'll have lost all momentum and never get it back. Unless the underdogs get lazy, they will topple the wintel world in the upcoming few years.

LXR

I've been working on LXR (Linux Cross Referencer, although no longer limited to the Linux codebase only) at work lately so I've join the dev team and have been committing my changes. Yet another project to add to my list :-)

And now, somewhat perversely, LXR can index Visual Basic code.

weblog spam

Hopefully you haven't noticed spam messages in the comments of my weblog. If anybody even reads this thing. I have to delete at least several per day. So I turned off comments altogether.

Eventually I'll make my whole website (blog, gallery, main pages) all look the same and at that time I'll switch weblog systems and hopefully find one that has a good spam-prevention mechanism.

So if you want to comment on a blog entry, just email me
