point just sounds so much better then dot btw. In math you don't read 5.7 as 5 dot 7 you read it 5 point 7. Likewise, it should be 10 point 1 point 3. But it is dot as in dot com. There's a difference.
Uh oh, the point or dot thread is moving in .

Not-so-lucid dreaming

I predict that in the not so distanct future, President Bill Gates and his evil government will complete a hostile takeover of the computer operating system software industry and pass a bill making it illegal to use any other marketing firm other than one Micro$haft chooses.

Said marketing geniuses will name the forthcoming Macintosh OS "Sub-Windows X2" or some idiot thing.

Either that, or President Steve Jobs will rename the OS "Steve OS" and outlaw all others.

We now return you to reality.

(Sorry guys, it's early and I didn't sleep much last night!)

Well ...

This next version may very well be 10.5. But I guarantee we'll be seeing Mac OS XI before 2010 (or 2005 for that matter.)

... people seemed happy paying for the 10.1 increment (me included) ... so why not 10.2 (I know I will) ;-))
