> gold rush that happens to use computing as its backdrop, which is overwhelmingly heading towards web-based media companies. Yet Gates' and Jobs' gold came from edge clients, not web media. Clients have never been more powerful, why is there no modern gold rush in client software? Is it merely that SaaS/hosted software does not suffer from piracy?
