I have always thought of QuickRef as an automatic "sure let's get it"
kind of product. Has anyone heard of other similar products? What kind
of experience can we expect in the area of cost increases for this
product over the long term?
What I never figured out is how a product like this could have more
than a small window of usefulness, before the main product's company
(IBM) incorporates its advantages.
Sometimes the window is bigger than we expect - it took time before
IBM decided it wanted to keep the sort business.
Sometimes the window is naturally small - by the time Microsoft got
disk compression, that model had run its course.
