I would Like to remind you out there in computer land of previous attempts to abolish the stand alone PC and OS for the network only systems currently being promoted by large corperations who wish to again motopolize the entirety of computing to themselves. WEBTv. Started out well but most users upgraded themselves to REAL computers that could DO SOMETHING. Gradually lost money and was bought out by our current computer monopoly Microsoft. Oracle's "Network Computer", Still trying and failing. Sun Microsystems Network Computer, Popular with business but NOT with home users who now make up a large portion of the computer market. Now we have the "Internet Applience" and internet application and storage space providers. (Sun Microsystems again with their Star Portal office suite amongst others) trying replace our stand alone PCs with a Centralized and Monopolized "Network Computer" IT WON'T FLY THIS TIME ANY MORE THAN IT DID PREVIOUSLY. We INDIVIDUAL users are SICK AND TIRED of being herded by giant corperations into this or that centralized monopoly so you can continue to control us. (Witness what is currently happening with Microsoft if you don't believe this.) What does this have to do with Be, They have a good OS for computers that DO SOMETHING other than access the "internet only" rental software and storage space that the "network computer" conspirators are truing to foist on us and if they are smart they would stick with it. Most users of these coming "internet appliences" are probably going to upgrade themselves to true PCs that DO SOMETHING just as the early WEBTv users did despite what the big corperations that want to re monopolize all of computing propagandize about it.
Dont be to sure that the forces that be won't try to put an end to Independant stand alone PCs!!! It has been a long time goal of the secretive "Illuminati" orders that run much of Big Government anf Big Business today to set up a ONE WORLD DICTATORSHIP. It is my belief that this whole trend for "Internet Appliences" Network Computers and ASP based RENTAL software and online storage space is a part of a plot to capture control of the Internet by these "Illuminati" orders as part of a first phase of setting up such a state by FORCING us into a world network computing environment for all of our business and computer work. It is also my belief that we should fight this by NOT using devices such as Sun Microsystem's Star Portal Online versions of StarOffice (the CD Rom and download versions are OK because you can load them on your hard drive and they do not FORCE online usage. We dhould also refrain from using any other major online applications that may come up in the future, free or rental. By telling these people and businesses that Insist on bringing FORCED Network Computing to us NO in no uncertain terms by NOT using their web based applications we hav a real chance to put a stop to the WORST DICTATORSHIP OF ALL time without violence.
