Tidbit, germane to my earlier question:
Of course, this being Silicon Valley, there is always a new revolution to hype. And to hear it coming from Jobs -- Mr. Revolution himself -- is bound to raise some eyebrows. "Steve is a little like the boy who cried wolf," says Robert Cringely, a columnist at Info World, a PC industry newsweekly. "He has cried revolution one too many times. People still listen to him, but now they're more skeptical." And even if object-oriented software does take off, Jobs may very well end up a minor figure rather than the flag-waving leader of the pack he clearly sees himself as.
There are those who lead, those who follow, and then there are columnists...
HA! Wow. Cringely. What a doof.
