C R Y P T O N O M I C O N    NOW AVAILABLE IN TRADE PAPERBACK WHEREVER BOOKS ARE SOLD! In the Beginning wasthe Command Lineby Neal StephensonAbout twenty years ago Jobs and Wozniak, the founders of Apple,came up with the very strange idea of selling information processing machinesfor use in the home. The business took off, and its founders made a lotof money and received the credit they deserved for being daring visionaries.But around the same time, Bill Gates and Paul Allen came up with an ideaeven stranger and more fantastical: selling computer operating systems.This was much weirder than the idea of Jobs and Wozniak. A computer atleast had some sort of physical reality to it. It came in a box, you couldopen it up and plug it in and watch lights blink. An operating system hadno tangible incarnation at all. It arrived on a disk, of course, but thedisk was, in effect, nothing more than the box that the OS came in. Theproduct itself was a very long string of ones and zeroes that, when properlyinstalled and coddled, gave you the ability to manipulate othervery long strings of ones and zeroes. Even those few who actually understoodwhat a computer operating system was were apt to think of it as a fantasticallyarcane engineering prodigy, like a breeder reactor or a U-2 spy plane,and not something that could ever be (in the parlance of high-tech) "productized."Download the rest of the article here.Mac stuffitorPC ZipCopyright 1999 by Neal Stephenson  AuthorTrackerWant to receive notice of books, events, promotions, and news of Neal Stephenson?Sign up now!Enter your e-mail address below.
