Dvorak Says Apple Will Switch to Windows

Cocoa already runs on Microsoft operating systems. Or at least would given a few hours or weeks (at most) work.
Apple has a habit of 'introducing' new technologies from the coterie of heretofore unfamiliar NeXT technologies.
Hey look! We've got this great new thing called (pick one):
* Cocoa (aka OpenStep)
* NetBoot (aka NetBoot)
* Pages (aka Pages---though not a NeXT, Inc. product)
* NetInfo (aka NetInfo)
* Xgrid (aka Zilla.app)
* Spotlight (aka DigitalLibrarian.app---somewhat different)
* and so on...
That's not to say nothing is new.
