   Why So Many Products With Poorly Designe

   At first you wonder how they got the difficult part correct and screwed up the   
   easy part.  The parts that fall apart aren't really necessary so you can still   
   use the thing.  Often it is better stripped of the unnecessary junk.   
      
   So why are only the frivolous extras breaking?   
      
   This is easy to explain.   
      
   They put the bright people on the essential difficult part and the less   
   competent people on the less necessary easy parts.   
      
   And the incompetent people don't even get the easy part right.
