Unless my clock is wrong there's still half an hour left. But we never quote the number anymore anyway, because now that we have competitors we don't want to tempt them to get into a number war.
Absolutely! I doubt that if we don't get accepted it'll be because we didn't tweak our application enough. At the same time, it doesn't hurt, and on occasion I do find things that really could be done better. (As it turns out, I added a good deal to one question that I'd breezed over the first time.)
Yeah, I was just musing that us engineers love to focus on things which don't really matter. It's an interesting phenomenon, and I do it all the time too. I wonder if the solution is as simple as continually asking ourselves, "Am I spending my time on one of the most critical aspects of the project?" Anyway, I didn't mean anything by it. :)
