>>1. imho, the market decides value much better than alan greenspan (with his personal biases and agendas - known or not).
2. chained dollars can't improve anybody's lifestyle b/c they aren't REAL.
3. the numbers produced by chain weighted dollars are absurd. 0.5% of the economy doubling productivity growth? 9% productivity growth in late 1999? do you have any idea how freakin' big that would be IF true (it wasn't)?
4. if computers created more revenue and/or reduced labor hours then the effects were ALREADY included in the then current gdp calculation and didn't need to be added.<<

pay special attention to #4, although the others are relevant, too.
