I'd like to know how the first Swiss knives looked like... The solution would be to wait until our understanding of the technologies for presentation and software distribution over networks become stable so that they don't change as much, and then to build the smallest, leanest browser we're capable of. This doesn't mean that we don't have a need for browsers, as the article suggests; merely that we could use some better implementations.

> I'd like to know how the first Swiss knives looked like... Taken from wikipedia: > During the late 1880s, the Swiss Army decided to purchase a new folding pocket knife for their soldiers. This knife was to be suitable for use by the army in opening canned food and disassembling the Swiss service rifle, the Schmidt–Rubin, which required a screwdriver for assembly. In January 1891, the knife received the official designation Modell 1890. The knife had a blade, reamer, can-opener, screwdriver, and grips made out of dark oak wood that was later partly replaced with ebony wood.
