I was thinking of this article and some famous quotes from Bill Gates....from the article 36 Greatest Bill Gates Quotes, just For Apple Fanboys...posted at 36 greatest Bill Gates quotes, just for Apple fanboys | Econsultancy
I think there's plenty of insight in these GEMS...gives an idea of how big companies with egomaniacal leaders can screw the pooch...
33. "Microsoft is not about greed. It's about innovation and fairness."
34. "To create a new standard, it takes something that's not just a little bit different; it takes something that's really new and really captures people's imagination and the Macintosh, of all the machines I've ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard."
35. "The best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to study great programs that other people have written. In my case, I went to the garbage cans at the Computer Science Center and fished out listings of their operating system."
36."We will never make a 32-bit operating system, but I'll always love IBM."
Veeeewy int-uh-westing.....as Elmer Fudd said...Speaking of F.U.D....that was a Microsoft tactic for 15 years...
