Barry,

Nice article. Michael C. has been talking about the speech applications for some time.

The idea that we now have all the processor speed we need is promoted by those with little imagination and no vision. I have referred to this many times in the past, but these are the same people who couldn't understand the need for 486's when 386's were mainstream, and who then couldn't understand the need for Pentiums when 486's were mainstream. History is full of nay sayers preaching how we don't need more speed and there are no applications to take advantage of more speed. You hear the skeptics cry each and every time a new generation of chips is introduced. Bottom line: some people never learn.

I say build it and they will come. We will never have too much processor speed but we will aways have people who think we have too much processor speed.
