i agree it is sad when a great idea is apparently difficult to
achieve. but at the same time i wonder if sometimes people see an idea
as simple, but fail to see that yes the devil really is in the
details. so, are there polas which have worked stupendously well in a
non-software situation? if so, what makes them different than the
software case? is it just our legacy of crappy mainstream os's?

sincerely.
