Talk about shooting fish in a barrel … David Pogue’s column in MacWorld this month reviews some of the preditions of Apple’s death from the mid nineties. Some of the quotes are now great comedic material though. Even I had forgotten how deep the pessimism about Apple ran back then.

I just read that UCITA has passed in Virginia. Details as they emerge.
