You mean a company with heavy invest in another currently profitable technology, is downplaying something else because they aren't the leader in the new area?

You don't say

no, i'm saying that a company with a heavy interest in bringing a new technology to market is now downplaying that technology after having invested the engineering and resources to evaluate whether or not it has a MARR.

downplaying potentially a ground breaking technology is not going to stop it from being made.
so they probably think its not worth the money

but whats sad is that as soon as brilliant scientists discover a new technology it immediately gets turned into a tv or some gadget to make the rest of us dumber

forget nanotubes - go straight to laser, which actually works
