Paul,
RE: "It may be the like discovering GOLD in California (AGAIN !) in
1849, except that ONLY Intel (and HP) will own the rights to
mine and sell that gold."

Now there is a reach...Unfortunately, gold miners made very little during the gold rush. The saloon owners and provisoners did.

Paul, Re: "It may be the like discovering GOLD in California (AGAIN !) in 1849, except that ONLY Intel (and HP) will own the rights to mine and sell that gold."

I would agree with what you surmise based on (IMO) The Merced being the GOLD, the SERVERS being the mines and the INTERNET being the fields. Likewise the various Software etc are the picks, shovels and permits which get them there!

Anyone looking to strike GOLD today has to be thinking of the INTERNET.
