Sorry to disappoint, Chris, Microsoft will never die.
They will, however, be humbled.
It will be a slow and agonizing process, with much wailing and moaning.
There will be casualties, as the monsters limbs lash out, but most
people will not notice.
They will be too happy playing with lovingly crafted open source
applications and a real OS.
If they're real nice, we'll let them park cars outside the party.
