TCP/IP will never go mainstream.  It is just a prototype.  The idea that a protocol which was state of the art in the 1970s, will still be used by billions of people in the 2010s is just stupid.  By 1979 the internet hadn't become mainstream so obviously it was never going to happen.  Something more efficient (and totally incompatible) will come along and we will use that instead.
