my guess is that it will take more than eight

Agreed, but cautious. If/when things cool down, how eager will gov't and business be to roll out $5 million machines that do not improve productivity. Are our attention spans too short to demand full roll-out? Even if business and government spend the money, by the time they actually get around to it, how much of the business will SURE end up with?

Bob

PS: Will our collective appetite for such machines and spending be higher or lower if it turns out to be domestic nutjobs sending anthrax through the mail instead of bin Laden or Iraq?
