Technology in the long-run is irrelevant ".That is exactly what a customer of mine told me when I made a speech to him in regards to a new product. I have been speaking about the product's features and benefits and listed "state-of-the-art technology" or something to that particular effect, OCR as you of them. That is when he made his statement. I realized later that he was correct, at the very least within the context of how I used "Technology" in my own presentation. But I started contemplating whether he might be right in other contexts as well.
