HOW TO COMPLETELY REVITALIZE THE US ECONOMY.
External link:
Apparently, the main reason for the US economic slowdown has been the reduction in purchases of new computers, right? And people are buying fewer new computers, because they feel their current ones are fast enough for everything they want to do, and the main thing they need to increase the speed of their computer is to increase their connection speed to the Internet.
If you want people to buy new computers, you need to make a "killer app" that requires a new computer to run well. I don't know about you, but I bought my last computer so I could play Quake and Doom. If Intel would make some great, great games and utilities and suchlike that everyone wanted, but that would only run on a Pentium 4, and then give them all away free, they'd sell a whole lot of chips. This is The Official Record.
