I could agree to that, except that with all the internet and other technologies design is so much more easy to "borrow without a permission", so IMHO the exports of actual parts will stay there for a while. And all those designs have to be materialized in form of some parts anyway, the question is just how and where it happens. -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
