But it's hard to imagine any of them being world-class weenies like Microsoft. At least Sun, Oracle and IBM ship good products. Dominating the market with pure crap is...well, I guess that's a noteworthy achievement, after all. |

Hey! TC, Excel is pretty darned good. SQL Server used to be pretty darned good, and I hear it still is, but haven't been near it in a long while. Microsoft Word for DOS was a pretty darned good word processor. So... Whether or not Microsoft can actually DEVELOP any good products, they have shipped a few. |
