In his 1994 column La bustina di Minerva, the author Umberto Eco observed that the division between Mac and Windows users is remarkably similar to the differences between Catholic and Protestant religions (he also commented that machine code is talmudic, a viewpoint echoed by Neal Stephenson’s essay In The Beginning Was The Command Line). Should a radical new interface approach take hold, what religion would it correspond to in Eco’s analogy, and what values would it reflect? Mormons? Scientology?
