Abstract

The past five years have seen irreversible changes in the computer and information industries. The last COMDEX trade show (Fall, 2002) reflects the emphasis on next‐generation computer technology, DIY setting‐up systems with consequent lower pay for the professionals, globalization, lower return on investment, stifling of innovation and creativity – all adding up to a depressing future for the industry.
