^very good point.  If the big players have their way it will all go over to web-basedor subscription business models. You can already see it with 90% if the new startups. As far as most tech businesses are concerned, the era of "open" anything along with non-proprietary "standards" is over and done with. 

Thank goodness there's at least the BSD/Linux alternative if you still want locally installed apps and ownership of your desktop.
