Hey group,

This post might spark a thread of comments:

I saw this via a post on Andy H.'s blog.

Quite an interesting post by the blogger, Pete W., ex-Microsoft. He  
just left MS to work with a Web 2.0 company, on Ruby on Rails.

Strong comments by him about “corporate ineptitude” and many other  
things …
