An evil influence of a star or planet. The items on your list are mere pin pricks to a sleeping bear: >The MacOS. >TurboPascal. >The dismal initial Windows release. >Novel NetWare. >The release of DrDOS 6.0. >The OS/2 fallout with their main customer and ally (at the time) IBM. >Their initial neglect strategy towards the Internet.
