I find it worthwhile to go back now and again and look through analyses of why a piece of software succeeded or failed.
It's always particularly illuminating to look at three things:
1. The role of leadership in the failure.
2. How much leadership got paid regardless/what happened to leadership afterwards.
3. What happened to the rank-and-file who actually build the software.
The story is always basically the same, with a few variations on the themes.
