>>The Mosaic browser was a gee whiz technology when it started, so was the Macintosh.<< michael jordan can dunk. so what? that doesn't mean you will ever be able to dribble and chew gum at the same time. the browser opened up access to information that was not available before. lots of information. voip doesn't do anything except repackage what already exists. big difference. macintosh redefined computing when it came out with the gui interface. voip just repackages what already exists and doesn't add anything significant in terms of benefits to offset the costs. big difference. wrt wealth, the biggest stock market bubble (caused by investor ignorance) created the VAST majority of the wealth. selling brwsers was such a good business that netscape would have gone out of business selling them.
