It's insane how quickly we forget history, even our own internal history, in this industry. Just as a small unrelated example, take the monopolistic cases of IBM, followed by Microsoft, followed by Apple. I've often wondered if it's a cost of the rapid pace of development of technological power, or just that the industry is still so (relatively) young.
