Besideds CCC, they can start by firing everybody working on Resero. That's going to drain considerable resources which they don't have to squander. If there chances of succeeding in the NC market are slim, the chances of them competing in the OLAP market are razor thin to less than zero. Next, fire those responsible for the Java Office fiasco. Java is clearly designed for building components and those components fit together to form large applications. To DISCOVER that after falling flat on your face is nothing more than abject ignorance. That's not hyperbole, it's simple, cold fact. Anybody that ignorant has no business leading a software development effort and should immediately be sacked. Observations: 1. They don't understand component-based development. 2. They don't understand distributed software design. 3. Their development process is non-existent to pathetic. 4. They have an extremely, extremely weak development team. 5. They have an even weaker management team. Fire as many as you can and get a competent CTO to direct the development of their core products. For example, look at VSIO and tell me how tragic Corel looks in the face of their success? They don't know how to design software at any level. They are living of previous, late 80's products and that's not going to last. Novel was the same way and they but they are turning things around with the help of somebody who isn't a toy-computer hacker from the past.
