Java actually did....jscript may not have (cept for on the serverside) but 
java has dropped the bomb in a biiiiiiig way....just in another skin-flash is 
based on java and flash is absolutely HUGE these days...i know windows won't 
be kicked out anytime soon and i never said it woudl be....i personally love 
windows, i've never had too much trouble w/ instability-sure i've got my 
gripes....

oh, so your saying there will be innovation rather than stale programs 
comming out year after year...gotchya :-)

haha, maybe that's not what you had in mind, but thats what i see...look at 
bram bos(hammerhead, moonfish, tureg, and the mind behind steinberg's BBox) 
-even tho he is doing stuff for windows and he doesnt have minions behind 
him, i think that he has, on his own with no help, made some of the coolest 
programs out there-many people hate them but they are free (cept bbox)....if 
he had a whole scene behind him doing the same thing who knows what could 
happen?


>> and it
will not happen. If something will pop up, it'll be a labour of love from a
hacker, and not something from the established firms like Steinberg and
Emagic. The target audiences of Linux and music software companies are
>>rather disjunct.

haha oops, did i say invented?  i was in a hurry-developed...slap me

>>>(the guy who 'invented' Linux), 

by the time i can afford mac, i'll be dead...haha...and whether he was 
misquoted or not i still think it's funny :-)

>>>Therefore, it's Mac OS X for me. By the time I can afford a Mac, they'll
have fixed the OS. :)


nah.....like i always say-it just comes down to preference, there's no point 
in argueing with people because it's like arguing about religion, nearly 
pointless...so let's all be happy an shut up about our OS :-)
