You're right marinerd. If it's quality, there will be a market for it. I used to work at a 'major technology company' and one of the guys there used to make hand crafted, Japanese style furniture. He sold some of it, for mucho, mucho dinero, to Larry Ellison (Oracle honcho). Yet this guy was also a software genius and started his own company (I don't know what happened to it).
I wasn't bemoaning (too much) the changing technology, just noting that the changes are significant in just a very few years. And there's been no time in human history where it's changed soooo much, so fast (save perhaps for WWII and military hardware - the difference between a 'Brewster Buffalo' and a P-51 not to say Me-262 (jet) is amazing).
