Yes, Ed, stimulating thought there. We can know things ten times faster or 100 times but events unfolding are still on "people" time, not digital time. Its like the concession stand at a football game. Your order is entered, calculated, inventory changed at the home office, reports generated for the CEO in seconds, but it still takes the attendant what seems like forever to fill up your monster size Coke.

By the way, driving around Washington is the most frustrating experience. Remember the game pick up stix? Well, that is how the streets are laid out in Washington. Anyway, metaphorically, it relates to the one clock signal as the ultimate determinator of when writing and reading occurs in the Mitsu TVs. The Judges were focused on the fact that under the Claim construction, the same clock signal, although gated at times or through frequency changes remained the same signal. Like Rhode Island ave, no matter how many damn circles, turns, lack of street signs along the route, it still remains Rhode Island Ave throughout. Under McKelvies claim construction, that is literal infringment and Ampex should win this case.

What the Judges seemed to be pounding on was that McKelvie in making his ruling ignored his own claim construction.

Good post. I had a chip installed in my brain just for the kind of future you described.
And lest we forget, the late Timothy Leary said, "The internet is better than acid."

Still, we need more SPEED.
It's coming...
