Lurking and productivity don't go hand in hand. ;) I believe Mr. Gilder's response at the time was insinuating that PCs were delivering far more productivity benefits than Heinz or other new era skeptics would allow for. Gilder used the word 'capable' but infers that the capability was being actualized. In point cases certainly the PC is delivering tons of benefit, but across the whole spectrum of new PC's sold to business each year? No way. I have close to 20 years of experience in the PC industry, including 10 years of work management consulting in manufacturing, government, services and knowledge worker organizations. Fairly confident in my assertion here.
