She sniffs it in the alley
She smells it on the street
she studies all your email
for her coprophagic treat!
Woof!
It's amazing what a readin' dog can find just by aiming her tortoiseshell
cheaters in the most obvious direction Predictions! Hey, going out on
a limb is for cats, but here's what the Crump-Dogg sees for 1998 (dated
Jan. 22)
1998 will see the Justice Department's case against Microsoft
thrown out by an Appeals Court, replete with harsh language excoriating
the hapless dept. of Justice for doing such a bad job making their case.
Apple Computer market share will stay well below 5 percent
for the year overall, and possibly spike down to 1 percent as healthy
competition in the over-300 MHz Intel and Intel clone chip marketplace
meets and beats the G3 in performance. (Let's not even mention price).
Full-featured systems at $799 (with monitor) and below
make Fall and Christmas 1998 a PC-system buying frenzy that will be remembered
well into the next millenium.
Someone will make a color Windows CE machine with a real
keyboard that will spell End of the Road for half the laptop market.
DRAM manufacturers will make the transition to 64Meg chips,
setting the stage for a 1999 in which 256M desktop systems become quite
common.
Windows NT sales will boom as NT5 becomes available and
people realize what it can do with the extra RAM.
Windows 98 sales will run neck and neck with set-top boxes.
Customers will be equally satisfied with their respective purchases. Both
satisfaction and sales volume will be exaggerated by the manufacturers,
and overreported by the computer trade press.
Corel will be acquired, possibly by Computer Associates,
possibly by a Dutch information conglomerate.
Reasonably priced recordable DVD-RAM devices will appear
early in the year. This will force Syquest and Iomega to drop their prices
by 20 percent by the end of the year.
