>>>Who was responsible for the MSN Titanic disaster? I'll bet it was more business-types who did not understand technology. Sword cuts both ways in the hi-tech business world.<<<

Obviously Sal is no Dilbert fan.

Hey I went to the Dilbert site and he has stock indexes now - I especially liked the 'companies with pointy - haired bosses' index. But the Dogbert index is a close second.

Cheers,

When will we see the $billion movie about MSN....
I also cannot understand why the MSN ever lived. All they had to do was ask me, and maybe you too and they could have saved billions.
Instead they dropped a rock in the river and the river went around it, and they were surprised, so they dropped another, with a fence for the water to keep it in line, and the water failed to listen.

A friend of mine liked MSN, and I said it was very bad, and he said
'baaad, baaad, baaad, and that sums it up.

Only the sheepen liken MSN. Which tells me that Gates like sheepen.

Norm - Who is MSN? Before they got involved, Apple and Lotus were TWO of maybe the 5 GREATEST franchises in High Tech. When Manzi took over, Lotus was 5 times bigger than MSFT - when he left it was half the size - and he walked away w/ $100M+! Apple will never recover from the rape of Sculley.

The original post suggested that tech guys rarely can run the business they created successfully. This is obviously non-sense.
