Dry, Refreshing and Scary

from Gavin Clark, The Register:

"It took Microsoft 20 years to shift from technology David challenging tech giants to opaque corporate entity of dark and unclear motives that screwed partners and the competition. Google achieved that in half the time".

Apparently Apple has become so dark that the author couldn't see past its event horizon. Can Steve Jobs tunnel to another universe and come out as Ruppert Murdoch?

I wonder how Moore's Law applies to this trend.

Just noticed that the  Register link points to Page 6. Uhoh.
