Don't kid yourself, I agree with the reasoning behind black outs and stealth modes, I live them every work day. But if you think the industry has not heard or does not know or does not follow the progress of the situation, your deluding yourself.
Ogee, RVH, Rainer, FJ (welcome back sir) etc....or anyone else who made it to the AGM, tell me you did not get the sense or did not receive a confident air from the gathering that industry is in the fold here (at least observationally close as they can/could get)?
The public may not know or understand as of yet, but they will. Thats ostensibly what will cause a portion of the mania thats coming. "Its too good to be true"...."why has Intel not thought of it"......"there are no secrets in technology, someone always says something"...."don't tell mom".
