It's striking me that many enterprises that are our clients, prospective clients, or past clients lack wholehearted respect for Digital today; but that nonetheless, they're delighted to hire competent people who've worked for Digital, especially ones who've been on the firing line at ground level. I can think of many examples. ___Pete

And often, we drive away whole teams of people by letting them
work long and hard on a project and then cancelling it when it
was at or near completion.
I remember a fellow in Tewksbury some years ago who had his
r�sum� posted outside his cube. It listed a whole bunch of
projects where he'd labored long and hard (it contained
Gemini and, I think, the 11/74, Bluefish, and some others).
His objective?
"To work on a product that actually ships!"
One might also add: "and which is aggressively marketed rather
than p**ssed away."

And I wondered why it was so hot in here...the question is just what
are they trying to hatch??
As to Bluefish, I always thought fish should be canned.
