One of the comments in the article interested me:

"If you look at the life cycle of XP compared to that of a person, XP would
just be entering the 7th grade now."

I you look at the mental cycle of Adam Albright compared to that of a normal
person, Adam Albright would just be leaving the womb.

Thanks for the link.

This sort of thing goes on all the time. We are starting to go through it
with the changeover from analog to digital-only over-the-air tv broadcasting
as that deadline approaches.
