I don't know if there's enough vision. Industry wide, the apathy regarding this recent problem is already setting in - shiny things are happening elsewhere, people are forgetting.

In some industry markets, high quality can be tied to making more money, but I am sure by now all of us know the computer industry is not like that.

The primary goal of a vendor is to make money.

What's so exciting is to be able to just take something and polish it so much that hopefully in the future people will start borrowing things from it.

So the HP guy comes up to me (at the Melbourne conference) and he says, 'If you say nasty things like that to vendors you're not going to get anything'. I said, 'No, in eight years of saying nothing, we've got nothing, and I'm going to start saying nasty things, in the hope that some of these vendors will start giving me money so I'll shut up'.
