the PC became the Business Computer. Since the late 90's, corporations have more or less raped the entire industry, wrecking the Internet at the same time with ads fucking everywhere. Both Linux and Microsoft are both now about how to improve corporate efficiency. Apple's existence 10 years ago was about having Gates on the podium promising a new version of Office on the Mac. It's about having the latest Microsoft Office, implant a blackberry to it's staff so that the CEO's can go about golfing. Computers are obsolete before they even leave the factory. Seriously, did we go through 40 years of computing just so that grandpa could get an account on Facebook? And people wonder why IT recruitment is at an all time low? (at least over at this end of the pond)

The glory days are over. Everything IT these days seem to be coming from a faceless corporation or made to accomodate the faceless corporations. The users have 10x the computers they had in the 90's, just to visit Facebook, Twitter and listen to something on Spotify. But then, i grew up with the C=64, the Amiga and BeOS where some cool shit were being written. Computing has now been reduced to an applicance to keep in touch with people. The glory days are over.
