Future On Linux

While I was smoking outside the window, all of sudden my mind came out some questions. It’s quite interesting to know the answer though, but I can’t give a real answers so I just concluded myself here.

Bill Gates retired on 2008 how about Windows development?
My very first questions goes to Bill Gates. Who created the giant cooperate Microsoft. The latest Windows will be Windows Vista and how about the next version after the retirement of Bill Gates I asked myself. This is interesting for me though, as from my knowledge, Bill Gates are passionate about his development of Windows and who else actually developing with him? But I bet his partners will be retire sooner or later following him as well. So who is going to continue the development of Windows? Of course, I heard that there is some sort of Microsoft Certificate, where you can learn more about Microsoft development, but who?

Steve Jobs isn’t young anymore.
Yes, I think Steve Jobs is somewhat on the age with Bill Gates, so retirement is near for him as well. Let’s make it 30 years more, but after that? Who else going to continue the Mac OS X development? But since Mac OS X is Darwin base where developers around the world can develop it together, but what if Mac OS X fixed forever there? All the developers keep developing Mac OS X without any direction? What I mean here is, will those developers keep on develop Mac OS X only, or will there still be Mac OS 11?

Open Source Linux continue the rest?
So it came to my attention of Linux Open Source, where all developers still on the way developing newer version of each Linux platform. Ubuntu, SuSe, ReactOS and more to go. They never stop and we never know who are the developers. Every developers doing this for free, unlike Microsoft and Apple which require some paycheck to continue a newer version. I mean, once Microsoft stop develop, then it will be a war between Linux and Apple, and after Apple halt, Linux will bring to the future without questions.

Hence, learn all the operating system available now, so I’ll never got missed out any so called favorite OS. Don’t you think it’s a good thing to learn all kind of OS now?
