The blame game

Last week, Keith Winford wanted to use his Undo function to neaten his tangled cables.

"Keith has missed an important point about the Undo function. It can only undo what it knows to have been done in the first place. And even I, content as I am to blame Microsoft for most things, don't think I can lay the tangled state of my cables at its door," says Robin Jones at the Institution of Analysts and Programmers, frustrating our attempt to find someone, anyone, to blame.

Burmese military leaders? George W Bush? A lack of anti-entanglement police on the beat? It's political correctness gone mad.
