To comment on your point: the URSS has lots of home computers... most
copies of western ones. I wonder why was that.

I venture that software is 50% art, 50% engineering (or technical
expertise if done at the hobbyist level. That' s why software designed
by commitees (Apple-IBM's "OpenDoc" collaboration, anyone?) generally
sucks. It has to start with a "vision" from someone at the top, and
with some degree of passion about what he is doing. Rarely you get
that from bureaucratic committees.
