More on the “MaOS X on Dell computers” theory

Posted in Uncategorized on Dec 17, 2005

I just came across this article that shares the fundamentals of my "MacOS X in Dell Computers" theory, the author says: "However, I'm willing to bet that Apple, eventually, will compete with Microsoft despite its protests to the contrary." It also points out to some evidence that a spread sheet called Numbers that will add the missing piece to iWorks is being developed by Apple and adds a new twist to the theory that I had actually not tought about, that Apple could by Adobe to become a true competitor to Microsoft. It points to some recent rumor that I had also read about Apple reviwing the Yellow Box for Windows software that NEXT used to develop so that developers can create MacOS X and Windows binaries out of a single source code, something that certainly will increase the number of cross platform applications if done right.

    I am the director for Internet and Multimedia for Telefónica R&D, based in Barcelona where I managed their R&D center. I have been a bit all over the place for the last 15 years, specially in Tokyo, my favorite town, and finally came back in mid 2006 to my home town. I like everything that has to do with the Internet, computers, software and gadgets, not just the geeky aspect but also the business side. I also love reading (business essays mainly) and TV series and movies as well as having a good dinner and night out with my friends.
