Standards competition and globalization
I've been thinking a lot more about globalization and the important role standards have played in "version 3.0" of that process due to my reading of Friedman's book "The World is Flat."

The strange journey of HD disc formats

It had a number of notable nuggets, such as remote graphics rendering technology that receives wireless video signals from a pocket-sized PC (coming soon to an airline seat near you), or software to assist in data [...]

To add insult to injury, their activities undermines the cause of real reformers who might help build a copyright system less tilted against consumers which recognizes that intellectual property is different, and should have reasonable limits [...]

Next up, Paul Murphy will call Dallas residents New Yorkers in cowboy hats, and accuse Hillary Clinton of being a fan of William F. Buckley. But [...]

Processes and address spaces orthogonal, so Cosy process is like thread in other OSs. Hardware dependencies concentrated in areas of kernel for portability.
