Somebody's got to keep the giants honest--Microsoft, Adobe, AOL, the whole
lot of them--and the best candidates for that are the small developers,
Art's "Genius Companies." Lord knows, the Courts and the Congress won't.



Weren't they all once the "small developers" or "genius companies", losing
their "warm fuzzy feeling" with consumers when they became profitable or
hugely so?
The companies that revolutionized the pc and the internet are now corporate
giants, and who wants to root for them?  They lose a large part of their
heart and soul by becoming giants too impersonal to care about the consumer.  
No way around losing (or dissatisfying) a big part of your base in exhange
for millions of new consumers.
