When was the last time Microsoft released a Windows upgrade on time?
The answer is probably the first time they released Windows - and then
only if they didn't give a due date ahead of time like they do now.

A Microsoft lawyer on the Sun Java lawsuit actually said with a straight face
that the lawsuit should be dismissed, because if Sun were to prevail, the
resulting retooling that Microsoft would have to do to comply would cause the
ship date of the next Windows release to slip, and that would have a measurable
impact on the GNP.

In which direction?
