[ILUG] Interesting blog...has the OS become irrelevant ?

[ILUG] Interesting blog...has the OS become irrelevant ?

 Some decent insight here; it's nice to see someone say "vista failed
because it was irrelevant" rather than "because it was crap". What it might
also mean is that we don't need to push linux anymore either; it's just an
OS, and people have long been content with closed source BIOSes. The OS
matters less and less, as more magic is in the Browser.
