In 2002, a fellow student in high school told me, I shouldn't study CS to become a developer. I should become a sysadmin instead. His reason was, every software was already invented and now it only needs to be managed. Movies or music? Edonkey, BitTorrent, Kazaa, and Napster got your back. Chat or phone calls? MSN messenger, ICQ, IRC. Games? People were onlyplaying Counter Strike and StarCraft anyway.
