Well I sure hope you're right because I have a lot of money riding on INTC and RMBS. I would like to point out that as a user of voice interfaces (Dragon Systems) and cable modems, I can tell you that they work O.K. on present machines. The problem with internet speeds isn't the computer,it's the network. Voice recognition will improve with newer chips, in fact I think that is the key behind the new instruction set Intel will release next month. As far as I can see, multimedia will have to carry the ball, and that's more slender support than I like. Products that we can't even conceive of today may show up when everybody has the equivalent of a Cray in their home and office.
