Do you want to bet? Future predictions on XML

I love reading through these long bets especially "At least one human alive in the year 2000 will still be alive in 2150." which I could blog about for hours and Winer's "In a Google search of five keywords or phrases representing the top five news stories of 2007, weblogs will rank higher than the New York Times' Web site."

Now for my prediction. "XML and ASCII will still be used in computing architectures in 80 years time" Who wants to take me on for a $20 bet?

A mere 80, Mark? How about 800?

I predict that the bit will be obsolete in 30 years :)
