Physical things are great. They just haven't been as great a way to start a rapidly growing business as software. The same issue applied to software not all that long ago. As with software, the wide availability of consumer-level, cheap or even free tools to make stuff is driving a renaissance for hardware. And with so much hardware hacking then, as with software, some will see explosive growth. It's good to see in my mind because hardware can be infinitely more important/useful than software.
