Judgment

Tuesday, September 16, 1997 by Dave Winer.

At some point further debate is unnecessary.

I make my mind up and move on.

These are my current technology issues and points of view.

In summary 

Windows is the consensus platform. 1

The Mac OS can be fixed, and it makes sense to help fix it. 2

Rhapsody will not be a mainstream OS in the next few years.

Steve Jobs will be the next CEO of Apple. 3

HTML can't be made wizzy. 4

You can't run a large website with a productivity tool. 5

BeOS needs a popular web browser to be successful.

Java can't be a standard while Sun milks it as a cash cow. 6
