>> Ditzel is a marketing moron through and through. I only had to sit through a single speech of his to come to this conclusion. He makes used car salesmen appear honest.
You are so fixated on that one speech that it colors your entire view of the company. In any event, I was not referring to Ditzel’s acumen (or lack thereof) as a marketing man, but rather as a manager who has the reputation and the contacts to hire a software-development team that is second to none.
