Crisis breeds change, and given people don’t like change, this can result in market shifts in months that otherwise might have taken years. This week, three things happened that I can tie back into this theme. AMD, driven by crisis, provided a strong example of how the U.S. could address its financial crisis by changing what was a going-out-of-business disadvantage into a potential competitive advantage. I attended the HP Imaging and Printing conference and became convinced that the lack of a crisis may cause HP to miss what appears to be a clear change in its industry.
