(Submitted under comment in Don's blog. Hopefully it will be approved.) Don, I believe Microsoft's demise is more closely related to Apple and Google than you have thought. Google - easy one, GMail and Google Doc basically replaced the MS office suite I purchased in '98 Apple - based on Paul Kedrosky's observations, Vista sales is highly correlated to PC sales and once those numbers are normalized, "it looks like Vista sales are tracking on par with XP, and no better than that" (http://paul.kedrosky.com/archives/2007/03/26/playing_parse_t.html). http://paul.kedrosky.com/archives/2007/03/26/playing_parse_t.html). So from the indications of recent AAPL stock price - what if Apple continues to gain shares in the PC market? Upon purchasing a new iMac, my dad (retired) have found out that switching to Os X is easy as long as solitaire is installed.
