Well, they always suffer from the same dilemma: someone else gets it first, and they then can't just do the same even when its the right thing, they somehow gotta 'top' that, add to it so that where less was more, more is now less.
- unalone 18y agoI hate that mindset. One company I really respect is Nokia, because when they decided to rip off the iPhone their CEO said so directly - he said something like "We know to steal something good if we see it." I'd much rather Nokia have innovated to begin with, but at least acknowledging that influence is something respectable. A flat Windows logo - no gradient, single-color blocks - would look incredibly nice, and it might manage to convey the message of an easier, faster new operating system. Complexity is never likable: even good complex things are things that on the surface would appear very simple.
