Actually, the protocol stack we use today (SOAP, XML, HTTP, TCP, IP, ...) can be seen as a highly successful implementation of the OSI Reference Model. It's the OSI protocols that failed, not the layered reference model. And the protocols failed not because there were too few implementations, but because there were too many (one for each computer manufacturer), whereas TCP/IP had a single portable implementation that was available free of charge.
