- TheSpiceIsLife 8y agoYes, thank you. I didn’t know it, but that’s what I was trying to say. Is Telsa’s battery tech and production advantage a big enough differentor to enable them to lay waste to all the other large auto producers? I don’t believe so. It’s hard to imagine a future where Tesla is the only car manufacturer.
- oarsinsync 8y agoApple's advantages are big enough differentiators to enable them to lay waste to most other large phone/tablet/smartwatch producers performance and profits. They're not the only phone/tablet/smartwatch manufacturer though. Not all consumers care for 'best in $metric' products, and where consumer priorities differ, opportunities for others exist. IE, Tesla can maintain their advantages without the rest of the industry disappearing, it's not a zero-sum game.
