They did. Now they all use macs. By installing Acme on OS X, they get
all the nerd cred they need to win pointless pissing matches, but they
finally, after decades of trying, managed to escape the need to know or
even vaguely understand how their computers work. Most of these people
haven't touched an actual plan 9 system since their paychecks started
coming from ad surveillance. Don't weep for them; the only interaction
with plan 9 left for them is in posting to mailing lists about how much
better the bell labs network was than anything anyone else builds.
