Interleaf is very nice. I expect there to be a lot of competition for programs like that.

The Open Source theorem says that if you give away source code, innovation will occur. Certainly, Unix was done this way... However, the corollary states that the innovation will occur elsewhere. No matter how many people you hire. So the only way to get close to the state of the art is to give the people who are going to be doing the innovative things the means to do it. That's why we had built-in source code with Unix. Open source is tapping the energy that's out there.

Bitmap display is media compatible with dot matrix or laser printers.

I got tired of people complaining that it was too hard to use UNIX because the editor was too complicated.

There are always more smart people outside your company than within it.

Systems are going to get a lot more sophisticated.
