NEC sells monitors.
ATI sells graphic cards. Of which you need one of per monitor.
NEC and ATI executives get together to play golf. One says "Let's start a campaign to sell more!". "Ok! says the other one but how?". "Well let's pretend monitors help fight terrorism". "That won't work. How about they're good for the children?". "No one cares. How about they're good for the economy?". "Yeah, that might fly!"
And so they bribe somebody to write a paper stating that using multiple monitors (and graphics cards):
- increases productivity
- thus boosts the economy
- thus reduces unemployment
- thus reduces crime
C'mon, let's be real guys, look who paid for it, this is not an independant study. There's no way it would have drawned any other conclusion, it's all fake.
This study was paid for by NEC who makes monitors, and ATI who makes graphic cards. The study concludes that more monitors (and graphic cards, which you usually need one of per monitor) will boost the economy and save the world.
Well that's a very unexpected conclusion, isn't it?
