Future Platform of Computing

Right platform for the right job. A move towards open standards (slowly, gradually) by everything but windows is helping, XML, RDF and other standardised forms on information interchange are having and are going to have a massive impact.

In terms of alternatives on the desktop I'd *love* to see something like VMWare as well intergrated into a linux desktop as classic emulation is on the mac - just open the application as per normal and bingo!

Interesting to note dave, who's a coder by trade hasn't chimed in.
