Whether any technology lives up to its potential depends on who defines the potential.

If the potential is defined by the marketing/public relations arm of a software company it will always live up to it right up until the next version or paradigm is released.

If I don't tell you that the current version solves all of your problems you won't purchase it.

If I don't tell you that it didn't to sell you the next version your won't purchase that one either.

Which part of what professional marketers do for a living escapes those in technology?
