The ashheap of history is littered with *nix companies. And Microsoft is still out there. History's statement on the matter tells me that you've got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, and know when to run. Neither standards nor standard-free innovation is a guarantee of anything.
90% of companies and organizations fail quickly no matter what they do.

Microsoft's Win32 uses simple integer error codes.

So this kind of rant is offtopic in more ways than one...

And windows has one of my favorite error codes/constant names!
ERROR_SUCCESS, of course :)

... possibly brought by the same people who gave us the Start->Shut Down menu item.
PS: I thought Windows 7 got rid of the "Start" name but I just found it is still showing as a tooltip.

COM is a userspace thing, similar to DBus or CORBA. We are discussing kernel APIs here.

Not really, COM is also used in kernel. IErrorInfo also supports marshalling across processes.
