you may be right about intel, my area is software. We have slowed down considerably since the bubble, the companies have downsized and new products are minimal. There is one thing supporting my position that innovation has slowed though- the fact that I as a consumer don't need to upgrade to a new PC every 2 years like I used to. That statistic speaks volumes from my pov. It could be that intel is doing just as much as they did then but it is more under the covers, so to speak. But I know that enterprise software is doing half or less than what we did in say, 1998, and I haven't upgraded my PC at work for 3 years.
