1. Bugs

the famous retort, many years ago, when somebody complained about a bug in
an IBM program.

IBM's response: "That's not a bug, that's a feature!"

Age is not a factor: Micro$oft told me that just last week.
Billion-dollar Bill's software has far more "features" than
IBM ever dreamed of, however.
