Back in 1991, a friend of mine who just had got a job with Sun Microsystems told me "Chris, get into something called the Internet. It`s going to be big, I mean BIG. Start learning how to write the website code." I never knew or even heard of Sun. "Sun who?" I asked. I never took much notice. Well, thats just my bad judgement. A few years later, Sun invented Java. The rest is history. The point is, technology. How do you make the right choice? VHS or BETAMAX? Its the same old story. How to stop becoming a busy fool and keeping on track with technologies that wont become redundant...software or hardware. Interesting.
