Steve Jobs as Lord of the Rings - GigaOM

Posted by Marshall on September 15, 2006 | Link It

Some are beginning to view Steve Jobs as the new "overlord" of operating systems:

"The ability to run multiple operating systems simultaneously on the same machine under one supra-operating system or “hypervisor”– all with touch-of-a-key flexibility — has long been the Holy Grail of the computer industry. Or, to put it in J.R.R. Tolkien’s terminology, “The Ring.” The next release of Mac OS X (Leopard) is that long-sought “Ring” and Steve Jobs is about to become “Lord of the Rings.”

According to GigaOM: Steve Jobs would become the new Dark Lord.

"One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the Darkness bind them One OS to rule them all, One OS to find them,
One OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

I’m having fun with this one…it’s Friday, after all and it’s been a long week.
