I worked for a multi-million dollar flexible laser company. We were using PCs with win95 still on them. We had to cut the ferrells(the end of the flexible laser lead) at certian angles for the military/hospitals/satellites ect.. because they did not have the correct machinery to do this we had to do it using sandpaper and glass paper. The whole proccess from building the laser engines to making the leads was one huge fuck up, yet they were still making millions
