Thank you for out-pseuding me - congrats....
Anyway, you seem to be basing your analysis of my viewpoint on insufficient evidence - to wit, your statement "
suspect your old-fashoned view is going to die out fairly quickly".
My views are so "old-fashioned" that I am on the European CIO Board of a well-known search engine company, am a "Trusted Tester" for a well-known search engine company, and have spoken (at conferences and round-table seminars) on Business and Consumer adoption (the reasons for and impediments to) of "The Cloud" in four European countries, and am an active member of the BillSoft "Future of Technology in Education" group.
"
old fashioned" - that's what I mean by over-analysis (shaping what others said to allow you to put your interpretation forward - surely to analyse it fully you had to understand the background and reasons for the things I wrote)....
