You assume too much. I have seen it many times that when Bill leaves, the thing he was responsible for doesn't get picked up by anyone. It doesn't necessarily even mean that the organization is "abnormal". Perhaps the re

Yeah. The ads in he start menu are a sign that you are no longer the customer, you are the product. Windows has other similar “features”.

> a few nice options in the 15K-20K Euro segment You are making my point. Most folk can’t afford that for transportation. 10k is already a stretch.
