You have made some very broad assumptions to reach these dramatic conclusions simply in an effort to rationalize your support of Rockwell's next product announcement.

Be realistic Rockwell's product is not a runaway success Over Last night. We have a year or more to see if the product will be able to capture even a minor percentage of market share. It is way too soon for you to be calling every other product out on the market a has-been because this one that you are touting for Rockwell is announced.
