As far as prices on hard drives, you are very correct as well. I was in the market for two 1-1.5 Terrabyte drives for my data backup solution. After looking at prices Monday, I'll be limping along with my currently crowded solution for the foreseeable future. Thanks to "efficiency" I can't even afford to upgrade the drives in my RAID.

Or within the next 10 years. In either case, critically soon.

So, let's review real quick:

. Major environmental instabilities. ..
. Majority of populations in 1st & 2nd world industrial states getting old, and barely replacing themselves.. .
. Majority of populations in 3rd world states experiencing their baby boom 20s now. . .. .
. Communications technologies ( cell, twitter, media, day-trading, hacking, encryption ) changing the political playing field.. .
. Major global economic instabilities in many markets...

Hm.

And the lynchpin of it all... ..is the very mechanism of the economy itself... Hm.
