There were periods where the outlook and software quality was bleak... and there were periods where the outlook and software quality was amazing.

Right now is not anywhere near as bad as it’s been a few times in the past (pre-OS X, early OS X days especially)... but if someone doesn’t turn around the ship things are headed that way currently.

Ironically, in those days I was at my OS happiest. I'd built a multi-core BeOS monster, and felt like I was a decade ahead of the rest of the world.

Two decades later, and I still can't find as performant or useable a system as that.
