You're way wrong about software as a lark. I worked with Dave when he was at NeXT. I was consuming DBKit code about as quickly as he could hack it out. I don't know many people better at building or more knowledgeable about designing truly innovative technology.
I mean those guys in Scotland can grow two kidneys at a time from cloned embryotic stem cells. And you get a bunch of saleable mutton as a by-product of their process to boot. Bet the economics work a lot better than what these guys are doing..
For an example of virtual economies affecting the real economy, I suspect that Albania ca. 1995-1998 is a pretty good example. They completely disconnected their banking system from the real world and ran it as virtual economy with no controls on bad behavior.
