That's only half of the story- when I was growing up we were promised jobs maintaining gleaming robotic factories (much like Germany has now). Instead our factories were liquidated in favor of Chinese working at slave wages in primitive polluted sweatshops.
I think it is possible that dumb people aren't going to be diagnosed as often because 1) intelligence make the symptoms more acute 2) nobody cares about dumb people
What is generally recognized though is that the accuracy of the test also diminishes at greater than 120.

I think they should run with it- the wikipedia concept is great for spicy subjects and has value for the curious. Set up a 'wikipediaxxx' site and push anything inappropriate on wikipedia proper there....
I can't remember the last time I had a hardware issue- almost all of the issues were configuration, firewall, permissions or domain related. None of these problems go away with a thin client.
Does anyone even know what a desktop tech does nowadays? Most of the time they figure out issues and push a patch remotely to your machine- how will this be any different when your desktop is a virtual workstation?
Mobile is actually bad for the company because there is little space for advertising, and people don't normally click and by when they are on a cellphone. Mobile actually shrinks their market....

Mentally ill dumb/average people aren't diagnosed, they are thrown in jail.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers recorded one of their albums (can't remember which) in a deserted mansion.

Actually I think the lunar lander has tremendous scientific value as it has weathered direct contact with space for so long-
