Re: the Yahoo post of Isit4Real

I remember this type of hypothetical income generation figuring years ago. The excitement was because Oracle was working with IDX and building fingerprint security into Oracle 8. And what came of it? (The charts tell the story.)

Maybe IDX is the personification of try-and-try-again.

I have an idea why it didn't work with Oracle ... who likes being watched by surveillance cameras? also ... Microsoft found out the problem of information laying around in computers (memos brandished in front of their faces during the trial). Who commits white-collar crime using what machine? Who orders the buying of fingerprint security equipment? In summery: I don't think that management wants to have their every computer entry logged and recorded for future looksees (this is the impediment to commercial growth). On the consumer end ... if the fingerprint logon is a good idea consumer-wise, why haven't I heard but about two or three (Ron? and Zuma?) talk here about their purchases. I know that I haven't bought one ...

And in spite of my thoughts, I'm still holding long ... (go figure).
