This is what became the 1MB limit... so we named the last two but Lotus is no longer lotus, its IBM.
I do not see how you can every blame anything thing on Lotus. They got f**'d over just as bad as anybody else by MS I remember back in the day the popular saying was "DOS ain't done till Lotus won't run" and MS has kept up that business practice to this day. Just look at what happend to Word Perfect, Netscape and Novell among others were just lucky old Billy boy was too busy with his grand design to discount the internet as a threat until it was too late for the normal embrace, extend and destroy although that's still not stopped them from trying hard to do it. And while you have brought up IBM I don't trust them as far as you can throw them either I still remember the scummy things they tried to do back then as well, just because their some Johnny come lately claiming to be our friend well I just don't buy it like some in Open Source seem to do.
