As if it's not bad enough that those idiots have set our industry

What's bothering me is what the heck kinds of micro-subject matter they
could make *300* new ng's out of? Man, it has to be incredibly minuscule
subjects. Unless, of course, they're finally addressing the debugging and
optimizing some of their s/w. It would take a helluva *lot* of ng's to
cover that! ;)
