gp...I think we read the same book.
It's better to be first than better.
If you can't be first....Be DIFFERENT.

You are saying, essentially, that for product success you must market it and create brand recognition, otherwise the product may fail

This is very close to what I'm saying, but I have to make an important clarification:

In a world of competition, marketing provides distinction.

You must resist the temptation to assign causation from correlation alone

I think you just told me to throw out the scientific method. Scratch, scratch.

Correlation is highest when competition enters: Excite, Yahoo, Lycos, etc. Do you Yahoo?
