What really made me angry was the fact that the simplest things could
not be done properly, eg. paragraph formating (hundreds of paragraphs
get realligned, change justification, lose fonts as a side effect of
formatting one paragraph only), try to convert Word 1.0 to Word 3.0,
or even worse try to go back to your old format, you'll see headers
running one letter per line, in font size 56, etc...

Well, I do not believe it is a problem of a single manager.
The problem must exist in Microsoft internal management structure and
its development and marketting policy. Also I believe that they must
have immence staff problems to let the Word 3.0 disaster to happen
(perhaps they reclassified their technical staff to management?).
Obviously they had to find a scapegoat.
