Tenure.
This doesn't solely apply to public schools either, it's become a problem in higher education as well. All too often there is a professor that has been around for longer than some of his students have been alive, isn't doing his job as he should, but yet the university isn't able (or willing) to do much, due to the hassle of getting rid of a tenured professor.
How exactly is that any different from developing from the iPhone?
If anything, it's more expensive - Assuming you don't have a Mac, and since you can only write for the iPhone in X-Code which is Mac-only, you'll have to put up around $600 (lowest end MacMini), and you'll still have to buy keyboard/mouse/screen/etc.
Skynet gained access to several autonomous military drones (such as the T-1 in Terminator 3), using them to round up survivors, who were forced to build automatic factories and robots that were better at construction than the military robots. Skynet then killed these human slaves, and using the infrastructure they had been forced to start, rapidly designed newer and better machines until it controlled an extremely advanced empire on Earth by 2029.

Is this a sign of how the merger will turn out?
