What strike me as odd is that nobody has noticed (or at least commented on)
the fact that Mr. Cappelas's statement is, well, truly stupid [that's using
the "nice" term...]

As I recall, the statement was "Unix will be replaced by windows and
linux" -- think about that a moment, and consider (or realize) the fact that
Linux *IS* Unix [and the side-line thought that MS is truly afraid of Linux
because "it might really win"] and his statement boils down to:

"Unix will be replaced by Unix and that other OS that couldn't compete with
Unix..."

Am I misinterpreting something here?  Or was his "statement" something
cooked up by some adman high on some substance not purchased from the corner
drugstore... [or more likely, bandied about so many times that it was
mis-relayed before I saw it...]
