I am still surprised that I never saw (say) the DBase company get in
trouble for writing a virus that only messed up FoxBase data files or
something. :-)

It's not feature creep if you put it
at the end and adjust the release date.

Yeah, exactly. And given that I read they bought something like 15% of
