I make plenty of mistakes. I told I buddy of mind right after the YHOO ipo that YHOO was the AOL of the NET, bought it, but sold it WAY TOO SOON. I did the same with AMZN and EBAY. I come to the conclusion that it's because of my former life as an engineer that I understand hardware better then software, so I get cold feet with software firms. I'm watching COMS. I'm buying RMBS on dips. Home net working should be big, but no one has the killer hardware of software to dominate. BRCM has it all covered. The PC will disappear off the desk top, relocated to the basement or closet, becoming a home server. Buying of music in the physical form will be obsolete, replaced with downloadable forms store in what I call Media Cubes. NO more record stores. For more the MIT laboratory for computer science has the pulse. see this URL

Note the date 2018 they already are talking about or have Coke Machines that you can access with your cell phone and make deposit then presto changeo out pops a pop.

Also, see this URL start with cover story.

I would like to see what I call Diga Cube, 3D TV where you can walk around it and see it in 3D. That is far out in the future, I am afraid.

I was talking about hand held devices in an early post. Back a few months when I was posting about it on this thread I said that they would have screens that projected the image out larger then the small screen we have today. Just posted recently that IBM has a model of that very same idea today in the lab.
