>>>>There is no comparison between IBM in the 80s and Microsoft now, especially in their management. IBM was known as a constipated elephant back then, couldn't get out of their own way, and was arrogant to the point of not caring what their customers wanted.<<<<

that is an exact comparison, in fact it couldn't be more exact, msft HATES innovation, despite the PR lies spewing from balmer and gates that comforts the investor masses while most msft insiders are leaving the party. They kill innovation at every step and try to steal innovation from others and put their name on it.

msft hates innovation, just like ibm hated innovation in the early 80's, ibm's cash cow was destroyed by the pc, just like msft's cash cow is being destroyed by the internet.

you couldn't ask for a more perfect comparison, constipated elephant.
