Wishful thinking in tech prophecy never fills in the blanks of:
- It's going to be expensive especially at first when sales is shaking out the stupidest of the early adopters.
- It will be current at a time when the 'next big thing' is being hyped to keep the masses on their hedonic treadmill.
- As you say, it will never (intentionally) be bug free so that its owners want to be bled at the next generation turnover.
- It will be obsoleted as soon as possible to keep the dollar streams flowing.
Microsoft is exceptionally good at this.
Look how much they've made out of just moving menus around.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat?
