| I would suggest that the open source community should stop obsessing
| with the battle for the desktop, and start focusing on the battle for

| machine on a particular room every time you need access to
| information or computer power will be as obsolete as the notion
| of having to go to the hand pump over the well in the front
| yard every time you need water.
