Maybe they read this:

"Things You Should Never Do, Part I"

http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000069.html



Another favorite example for me BTW is the MS OS/2 2.0 fiasco that IMO is much worse, involving MS using unethical tactics to attack OS/2 later on. And Joel happens to be a former MS employee.


Ah, but doing that was what allowed them to kill IE and restart the browser wars.

Seems like Joel should retract that article.
