Mike Payne Joins the Punditry Class

Serial CAD entrepreneur Mike Payne may have been asked to vacate the CEO chair at SpaceClaim, (he’s now “just” chairman of the board) but he certainly hasn’t been put in a box. The Boston Globe sought him out to discuss the possible sale of PTC, and he responds with an interesting mini-history of the innovation curve in technology.

Payne’s interviewer is Boston Globe columnist Scott Kirsner, who was less kind to PTC in his written comments than Payne was in the interview.

    To interview SpaceClaim’s chairman of the board, Mike Payne about PTC no longer having any vision, when Mike Payne still can’t figure out how to successfully market SpaceClaim is hilarious.

    While I don’t disagree with what Mike Payne says about PTC having no future, Mike Payne’s marketing track record at SpaceClaim has so far been a dismal failure.

    This pathetic buffoon has reached the level of his incompetence by mismanaging SpaceClaim. He should enjoy his well-deserved retirement.

    Please don’t take me wrong. Dick Harrison wasted away all the technological and market advantage PTC had 15 years ago, but who is Payne to judge? For him it’s about an opportunity to back-stab his former employer.
