Who writes this nonsense? Or more importantly who with their eyes open would believe it. Here is an excerpt and my comment, as I dont have time to take the whole piece apart.
Quote "But InStat's Cullen isn't so sure consumer electronics - or anything else for
that matter - will drive growth like PCs did.

"There is no new killer app out there that you can put your finger on and say
this will be a driver of a huge amount of demand," said Cullen. "People are
waiting for old things to recover - when will PCs turn around, when will cell
phones pick up, when will networking come back. Nobody's saying, 'gee here's
this great new gadget.' There's nothing like the PC on the horizon."

This is the utmost nonsense; as writeable DVD or DVD/R is a killer application bigger than anything seen by the PC industry since the Internet. I am a participant in this industry and know of what I speak. Frame the issue this way; Because of the affordability of DVD/R drives for fall of 02, you can expect a revolution in content creation unseen since the advent of Desk top Publishing in 1985.

The production of DVD's at the local level will account for more content creation between 2002 and 2005 than the entire Entertainment industry has created since it's inception. That dear people, is a lot of content, and this boob making the above statement is simply all wet!
