If IBM made toasters... |
|
They would want one big toaster where people bring bread to be submitted
for overnight toasting. IBM would claim a worldwide market for five, maybe
six toasters. |
If Xerox made toasters... |
|
You could toast one-sided or double-sided. Successive slices would
get lighter and lighter. The toaster would jam your bread for you. |
If the NSA made toasters... |
|
Your toaster would have a secret trap door that only the NSA could
access in case they needed to get at your toast for reasons of national
security. |
