time to update the resume

According to Jason O'Grady, the guy who writes the the Apple blog for ZDNet, I'm about to be out of a job. Here's what he says will put me on the unemployment line:

8. iWork '06. Apple's productivity suite will get upgrades to Pages and Keynote with the possible addition of a modern Office-killing spreadsheet application (rumored to be called "Numbers" or "Sheets"). If it reads and writes Excel files the Apple spreadsheet will be the final nail is Microsoft Office's coffin. Microsoft will waste no time in announcing the end of support for Office for the Mac if this happens. It would be great if Apple also bundled FileMaker pro or a spinoff application called iBase (like they did with Logic > Garageband and Final Cut > iMovie). Apple should also make Pages into more of a true word processor and move all the DTP features to a separate application called iLayout - just to keep Quark and AdobeMedia on their toes. Bonus points if Apple were to release pro versions of Mail and iCal. Odds: 25-1.

At least I've only been here for three months, so my resume is reasonably up-to-date now. Le sigh.

While I'm thinking about rumour-mongering, maybe I'll get around to posting a roundup of my favourite pre-MWSF rumours between now and Monday. No promises!
