> Sometimes I believe that software, while great, will never be huge like writing a book that will survive for centuries. Note because it is not as great per-se, but because as a side effect it is also useful… and will be replaced when something more useful is around.

That's an interesting point and thought experiment: what piece of software currently exists that will still be widely used in a century? And what's the oldest software that's still being used currently?
