[off]VMWare vs. Parallels

[Randall Lee Reetz]

It never matters how many bad examples there are in a category... Just whether there is at least one good example... Actually, even that doesnt matter.. what matters is how the potential of a category measures up to the potential of any other category.  We can have a conversation about the relative merits of a web native xtalk ide and interpreter-runner (verses the absence of it).  We can have another conversation about how close tilestack comes to the potential in this category.
Utah these will always be seporate and do not directly inform or validate eachother.

I doubt if it would profit rev to dig this deep into general processing land, but there do seem to be alternative paths (to OS specific run time engines).  Something in this tilestack project really points forward.  Think of a future for OS's where there presentation and interaction layers translate out to a universal format like postscript, flash, or java or some sooped up version of xml or an executable uml.  The OS slaves to a deeper universal.


OK, but what TS is doing is hardly earth-shattering or new.  There are
now half-a-dozen Ajax RAD/IDE tools, and another dozen that are a
little more primitive but still get it done.
