Seriously, I think MSFT has pretty much stifled innovation in the PC software industry (except that the hardware continues to get faster). Everybody knows better than to put their effort into PC software, because if they come up with a winner, MSFT will "me, too" it and drive them out of business.

Has anybody seen any truly innovative PC software in, say, the past five years?

JMHO.

In the early nineties I had the opportunity to send the first test alpha page to the all-male LAN/PC support team of the company I was with at that time. The message was:

"Windows is the Devil's Jiz".

It was roundly appreciated and met with no disagreement.
