I think we all agree that Infogrames deserves a lot of blame, for many things. So, there's not much to discuss... we all agree!

Yeah, when I was a new-grad, I was just as cocky and a big know-it-all too. Experience has taught me that there's more to real-world development than picking up a CS text book and skimming it over. If you can't understand that scheduling and project planning (which includes accurate estimates for development) is part of a project lifecyle... well, then sorry.
It's too bad I'm not a new grad, and am speaking from life experience as well. If you've ever worked for a government contractor, you would totally agree with what I've been saying.

I could literally give you two handfuls of examples where it has, but I'm not going to go into it. Sugar gets much further than vinegar.
