Ah, their goals reflect their world, it seems. It is a place so cold and 
dark that you shiver with fear and cringe with disgust upon its sight; 
for the development techniques it employs are those left behind by the 
software world of 10 years ago.

According to one of my advisors, it was not until a few years ago that 
the hardware industry finally accepted SCM (version control) systems. 
Before that, they refused to hear of such nonsense because file backups 
worked just fine!

Shocking. O_O

P.S. This is, of course, a brash generalization! Do correct me.
