Do you have a mental problem ?

Yes, I know caring about doing the right thing verses how much money I can extort surely seems like mental problems.

What bothers me the most are the people who don't understand how important it is to keep innovation alive. It is what made this country great. The diversity of people, cultures and ideas has created most of all the inventions of the last two hundred years. These inventions created the economic prosperity. I know you Rush lovers will disagree, but it is the liberal thinking of new ideas that has created this country. Our founding fathers where a bunch of liberals who read that kook called Voltaire.

The point is not whether NSP sucked donkey doo-doo, but the fact that Microsoft used their monopoly power to dictate R&D development of another company. ALL INVENTIONS EVOLVE FROM FAILED PROJECTS OR OTHER INTENTIONS. This is how innovation works. You take the best parts of different ideas. NSP could have evolved into something really slick. We will never know.
