Which is good, because if I *did* know I couldn't say. Working at Microsoft was very difficult for me in some ways. I had my own ideas and approaches, and a serious intent to develop and deploy them. Microsoft has a well-earned reputation for suppressing competition from former employees by making over-broad claims about proprietary knowledge that defy any notion of right-to-work. In consequence, I made a concerted effort to ensure that the scope of things I learned outside of my immediate assignment was as narrow as possible, and that anything I did *within* the scope of my assignment was done with careful documentation of any outside sources of pre-existing ideas. If you think about that for a moment, you'll conclude that it places the engineers most capable of *product* innovation in a position where, out of self defense, they are least likely to innovate. The good news is that *because* I don't know, I can speculate. Which I'll do in the next message. shap
