I think the article is very shortsighted. By 2035-40 we'll probably have memory only (RAM) computers massively available. No disks means no current OS capable of handling these computers. A change of paradigm needing new platforms and OSes.
These future OSes may be 128bit, but I don't think the current ones will make it to the transition.
- alpb 4y agoThere are plenty of OSes today capable of booting and running from RAM. Pretty sure we wouldn't be burning all the prominent OSes for something like that.
- krackout 4y agoForget the concept of booting. Boot transfers the kernel OS from disk to RAM. No such thing would be needed on a RAM memory only computer.
