The Silicon Valley Tarot

Three of Hosts

Three of Hosts

They've put your brain on a pedestal and crowned you King of Workstations. You're really on top of things. Wait until after the rollout party to look in the rear-view mirror, though; you'll see Moore's law bearing down on you. Thirty-six months from now, your precious little risc machine will be a boat anchor. State of the art, cutting-edge endeavor. Reversed: Obsolescence, technical nostalgia.
