Hate to see you go

People like you are the only reason I stick with this rag. Since there is little, if any, usefull information left on IWE, I only come here for the lively debate. Since we're no longer debating WHETHER IW sucks, but HOW BADLY they suck, there really is no reason left to pay any attention at all. The print version had degenerated to the point where the only things I read were Petreley and Cringely. Now Petreley's mostly gone and Cringely's gone from printing researched rumors to spoonfed rumors laced with cheap-shots. With the reduction of InfoWorld into MSWorld, where will people get good information?

I used to really enjoy this business. We were only limited by what we could conceive of. Now what's left?

I sit here in this pit of depression, looking about me at an employer I really like, but who went from platform-independent scientific algorithm software to flashy win95 goodies. Now they're dying and they don't know why. Everything they read in PCweak tells them they should be thriving.
