Great answer and definitely in keeping with the original vision of what computing should be - open and accessible.
Maybe people here haven't lived through 68K to PPC migrations, or to DEC Alpha, or Sun SPARC to Intel, or PPC to Intel, or any number of platforms and platform shifts - some lasted longer than others, but all had their ups and downs. The largest 'down' was predatory business practices in the 80s and 90s, which set computing back a decade (and still apparently continues today). It's unfortunate that many of these FUD-type articles pop up whenever a new platform/chip is announced. I'm excited for technological progress and think that every new announcement is another small miracle that I'm happy to be around for.
