those engineers should start their own company (again, seriously)

they do, and this is why most of the innovation is not done by the big boys. The big boys can't innovate and they know it. who wants to work for a corporation if you have good ideas (i unfortunately have never had a good idea), when you can go make 10x the money yourself?

They used to be able to, bell labs and xerox but they days are long over. Apple is probably the best innovator of the group, and its really seeing good ideas and applying the apple method to it.

ignoring the monetary aspect (which is fricked up and i'm not saying i agree with stealing, like an caps) and speaking strictly in terms of innovation, it doesn't really matter for the consumer as long as innovation happens and it makes goods/services more affordable

Innovation is good, I don't disagree. But I don't really credit corporations for all the great things in my life. They just saw a way to make money, and did it. 90% of the time, they frick it up too.

is that why our consumer goods keep getting so much better and cheaper? constant failure?
