Comdex Fall 2000 Summary

Summary

If Comdex is any indication, next year will be quite exciting in the field of electronics. This year's Comdex did not seem to produce any products worthy of being called revolutionary, but it did produce quite a number of very interesting and useful products. The motherboard front appears to be quickly jumping on the DDR bandwagon, providing users with quite a few more options than they previously had. Gaming systems, demonstrated by the Gamecube, are catching up to the speed of today's computers (meaning that they will be only slightly dated when they come out a year or so from now). Biometrics is providing a huge leap in security, at a fraction of the price it used to be. And, finally, wireless technology appears to finally be taking off. With so many "hi-tech" products at this year's Comdex, we can't wait for next year's.
