What I find interesting is that Apple, DEC, and IBM
were all vey successful
at marketing their open architecture machines *first*, and only later decided
to switch to proprietary machines (at least within the markets we're talking
about), and they all got sat on as a result. How can Apple have been so
blind as to not realize that those pitiful 50-pin sockets with the weird
One word, GREED. The list of companies that have shot themselves in the
foot over trying to squeeze more money out of a product is a LOT longer.
