>People Hate Success ETC...< I totally agree that many people hate successful companies and people. 'Have-nots' many times are jealous of the 'haves'. I believe that one thing you are overlooking here is abuse of power. I know, I'm coming back to that argument again, but once companies or people make it to the top many times they will stop at nothing to remain there. Whether it be a dictator manipulating votes, media or the like, or whether it is Microsoft manipulating their code so as to not work with competitors products on equal basis, the resulting backlash is inevitable. Certainly, Intel has been the leader in innovation over the past 30 years, I don't dispute that and nobody here could but their business practices have come under scrutiny in the last five or six years (or maybe longer). In the end that is for others to decide as my job is to try and disseminate the information and make investment decisions based upon it. By the way, Nietzsche didn't exactly a 'nail it'. He ended up in the insane asylum believing he was Jesus Christ and then committing suicide.
