Competing with Microsoft
"My attitude is, everybody should try competing with Microsoft once in their life. Once."
Marc Andreessen, on being a veteran of the browser wars, in MacCentral, 14 June 2002
As someone who has spent most of his professional career working for companies that competeted with Microsoft, I would disagree. It is good and neccessary work to fight back against the evil empire. It does require a certain affection for tilting at windmills, and is not recommended if you are interested in becoming wealthy.
Tip o the hat to Owen Thomas of Ditherati for the quote.
