   Another change in topic.  Can you at least repeat your opinions with =
at least a single fact as basis to tie it to the real world?

  I like the idea of a seamless interface where distinctions between
  apps, and between apps and the OS, are hidden (if not removed
  alltogether), and I think that such an interface is inevitable.  It's
  kind of like Netscape's browser-as-platform idea.

  I don't know about the MS implementation, however, particularly given
  the onerous copy protection mechanisms being built into MS systems.
