Sen No Sen

InfoWorld’s Tom Yager welcomes Oracle to the Mac and reports:

The decision I made about two years ago to focus my IT operations, my research, and a good deal of my editorial output on the Mac platform will shape the rest of my working life.

Most professionals have these turning points. Those of us who differentiate ourselves by riding the leading edge have the most to lose, and therefore more occasions during which our faith is tested. Nothing tests your faith like betting the farm on proprietary technology from a company that can’t seem to decide whether it wants the kind of success that will keep you employable.

I laid it all on the line for the Mac, betting large that Apple’s technology would find its way into the mainstream of business and institutional computing and rise to dominate portions of the market that Apple doesn’t already own. The trajectory of Mac client systems and applications validates my commitment to the platform.
