Speaking of Kodak:

Why Waiting Until A New Business Model Is Proven Doesn't Work | Techdirt

In 1997, I did work with a professor who was consulting for Kodak, and we did a detailed report on why Kodak needed to embrace digital now. The response? Kodak told us "yes, yes, digital is important, and we'll be ready to switch, but right now, chemical processing of photos is so much cheaper, there's no reason to change yet." And, they were right that it was a lot cheaper, but they were wrong about the time to start switching.

I have an excellent Kodak digital camera (4.00 / 2)
from the last century (1999). It was my main camera for nearly a decade. I thought then that they were going to make the transition OK, but I suspect they were obsessed with their own exceptionality.

Believing you are the exception to the rule is an express ticket to the dust bin.
