I'm glad you asked because I have the answer. It's called the theory of devolution.
The idea that there is one winning party and many losers is obviously wrong. You can have cloud storage that focuses on security, one on speed of upload and on speed of download. If any of them would come first there will be room for others to "devolve" from them.
So if flying birds came first there still might be room in the market for non-flying chickens and vice versa. So far so cool.
Here's where it gets fun.
God created man first but we all think evolution is the answer. How can these two ideas possibly be consolidated?
Praise Darwin because devolution is the answer. God created man first and all the different species devolved from him.
Microsoft should give a small sum for every patent proven to be violated by open source software.
The linux community can then record this and write alternatives.
Automatic detection software would soon follow. dPatent will automatically identify patents being violated and will rewrite the code, patent free.
Soon, the patent office will realize the current patent system is not scalable, and the system will be changed. A (software?) patent would have to be automatically identifiable from now on.
(This is possibly impossible in many cases anyway. Isn't it?)

thanks :P

You're welcome.

World peace would be inevitable.
