Am I taking crazy pills? I never mentioned the 90's! Here's my original post, which is unedited:
> Developers like you and I are a dying breed. We remember writing applications for operating systems that had straightforward APIs, and OS developers that worked hard to ensure any app which used those APIs would not break.
