| "Ideally, use of the competing technology becomes associated with mental 
| deficiency, as in, "he believes in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and OS/2." 
| Just keep rubbing it in, via the press, analysts, newsgroups, whatever. Make 
| the complete failure of the competition's technology part of the mythology of 
| the computer industry. We want to place selection pressure on those companies 
| and individuals that show a genetic weakness for competitors' technologies, 
| to make the industry increasingly resistant to such unhealthy strains, over 
| time."
