Hardware is the New Software

The world of computing has turned upside down.

In 2001, Marc Andreesen noticed and noted, “Software is eating the world.”

Here I am to notice and note, “Hardware is the new software.”

Everyone wants to buy computer hardware. Prices of computer hardware are shooting upwards as demand far exceeds supply. If you make computer hardware, you own the world. Cancel your contract for $1. Open the bidding and get $10 for the same hardware.

Write it down. I think I said it first.
