Four of the last five banner ads on this forum have been for HP Windows Servers with the tagline "We get it."

Now you tell me, are they just "next in the rotation, honest!", or maybe an ominous prescient foretelling?

The ads are often different for different people, so maybe something more related to your browser, cookies, etc.
 
Why not create an Intel CPU/GPU for the iPad/iPhone, and , migrate iOS to Intel? Either you rewrite OSX to ARM or you rewrite iOS to Intel, and Intel is the fastest. Or could that make too much opportunity to Hackintosh iOS devices?

I am sure apple and all other major tech companies have been playing with the idea of intel for mobile devices.

however, you are wrong ARM is faster than Intel

Mountain Lion wasn't awful, but maybe that's just by comparison to Lion. But I agree, I think Mavericks will be another one of those OS's that hang around for a long time like Snow Leopard before it. Snow Leopard was the most polished OS X up to that point, and Mavericks was the most polished OS X post-SL. Both focused on a lot of internal changes instead of a lot of flashy features. Both releases were about making the best OS Apple possibly could, technologically.

I really think, either with this next computer OS or the one after that, Apple is going to make some radical shifts, like they did from OS 9 to OS X. They're going to want to rethink their assumptions about what a modern operating system needs to look like, and build something new from the ground up. Think about what computers were like 15 years ago. People had one computer, not a computer and a bunch of internet connected mobile devices. There was no "cloud". Nobody was using SSDs and HDDs were tiny. Processors were 32 bit and a fraction of the speed, not to mention Macs were all PPC. Internet speeds were much too slow to stream HD video or download large files. Pixels were huge.

Well, written. I hope for exciting things to come
