>>The automobile was basically a one-shot deal. Once we had them, the only way they got better was by getting a little faster, or safer, or more comfortable, or fuel-efficient.<<

The automobile industry wasn't though. The highway system wasn't completed for a long time. The interstate system wasn't even started until the 50's. The effects of the automobile weren't felt uniformly. Heck, out here in Texas we still have rural electric coops. There's even, gulp, dirt roads.<g>

>>that doesn't really persuade me that we can only boom in periods of population growth.<<

Agree, but it could intensify a technology based boom couldn't it?

Ethan,

The fact is, someone is going to be building those processors, someone is going to be building those communicators, and someone is going to be building the software that makes those processors and communicators useful. I say place your bets, and relax.

Exactly.
