Katherine: G. Dan Hutcheson and Jerry D. Hutcheson say: <Because the doublings in density were not accompanied by an increase in cost,.......Higher levels of integration mean greater numbers of functional units can be integrated onto the chip, and more closely spaced devices, such as transistors, can interact with less delay. Thus, the advances gave users increased computing power for the same money, spurring both sales of chips and demand for yet more power. > sciam.com After inventing the assembly line Henry Ford was able to bring the automobile to the public. It dropped the price of an automobile from $950 to $290. In "real" dollars is a Ford more expensive that what it was in 1927? I find it very hard to believe that average selling prices for commodities trend upward over time. <"I really don't like to "pull rank" in these discussions"> I don't mean to attack your position (whatever it may be), however I have been taught to scrutinize any data series and subsequent conclusions including mine.
