Tech: And You Think Q4's Going to Be Bad? - Barron's [View article]
I'm not much of a fan of Eric Savatz, or Barron's Tech Trader, and reproducing it here doesn't indicate much but a slow day on the Tech News Front.
Having said that, I do find the Posts here both interesting and insightful. LilBob, your view of tech is forward in its thinking but, remember that not everyone wants to deal with the "workings" of a thing, they just want it to work, simplistically. Throw away products that can be recycled are a part of this genre. The day of changing a "Tube", and I am being facetious, are a thing of the past. Do it your "Selfers" also have a place but are not mainstream. The simplicity in Form and Function that you talk about is the norm, for everyone not just 40 "sumthins". Looking Good is not good enough, even with tech. It has to look good and be exceptionally well designed in its Function to survive our open access consumers. The day that one device can sit on a coffee table, that everyone in the room can make work, is the day that we truly have a new world.
