You heard it here first.

November 20th, 2000

You heard it here first. Now Salon is following my lead: check out the article on how the FreeBSD-based MacOS X should scare the pants off Gates. MacOS X ships with stuff like Emacs, tcsh, and Apache . . . as well as running existing MacOS 9.x applications. That last part is the kicker, the reason why Linux will never be anybody’s desktop OS. For example, Adobe would be nuts to develop Photoshop for KDE and Macromedia wouldn’t even consider Dreamweaver for GNOME. But with MacOS X, you can have your cake (e.g. Photoshop) and your hearty bowl of oatmeal (e.g. Emacs) too!
