Toyota famously invented the andon system -- a cord that any person on the floor can pull to stop the assembly line when something is going wrong. Where was the andon system at Adobe when they were preparing to release Adobe Reader 9? I have to believe that someone over there knew how bad it was going to turn out. - DeWitt Clinton

Why do companies do this to us? I wonder if it has anything to do with Windows and MS not being a role model for other vendors. 'Cause on a Mac you rarely see this crap. It all starts with useless icons in the Start Menu and on the desktop and continues from there. (edit: I stand corrected, Adobe Reader 9 for Mac seems to be no better. And it need 405 MB of HD space. Thank God Mac OS has a built-in PDF reader). - Ole Begemann
