Small world: my first job out of university was working for Pete at the first company described here. It definitely was the kind of place you could add "_old.asp" to any URL and probably hit something. Ultimately I'm not sure there was much value we could have salvaged in our position however we handled support or our wider roadmap: this was a regional news group who fundamentally rejected the idea that the internet was going to destroy their classifieds business, and later couldn't cover the liabilities of its enormous gold-plated pension fund. Every business must decide how to optimise flows of value, but it's just as bad doing a good job at the wrong ones, as it is doing a bad job at the right ones.
