It didn't really improve when KO left the building either...
True, because KO was replaced by a weasel whose only goal was to chop
the company into pieces and sell the remnants to unsuspecting buyers for

Glad we totally agree on Palmer's merits... :-)
KO at least cared for the company, even if he totally messed some things up.
Palmer was more interested in maximizing his own bonus.
Ah well, the irony of it all... But it's a good legacy of the engineering that 30 year old machines are still being used in production around the world.
