I think I get your point but I don't think it entirely matches the graph. Is an answering machine more technologically advanced than a portable CD player? Edi

I think I get your point but I don't think it entirely matches the graph. Is an answering machine more technologically advanced than a portable CD player?
Edit: What I'm really trying to get at is that there are so many factors that go into adoption. Trying to sum it up by how 'advanced' the tech may be is a gross oversimplification
- rosser 15y agoThe GP said complicated, not advanced. A CD player is much less complicated for the "VCR clock has flashed 12:00 for the last four years" crowd than an answering machine.
- amirmc 15y agoPlease re-read his last sentence. Also, this doesn't really affect my point. Complicated, advanced, cheap, fashionable, etc are all valid factors in how/why things get adopted. Picking out one of them, on the basis of a graph, oversimplifies things.
