Right about everything.

I'm just a few years younger than Walt, but my experiences are similar, I even owned a Timex-Sinclair.

I own my own media company and the internet has changed everything. Many of the things I used to do are no longer economically viable. My aerial photography business, for example was wiped out by Google Earth. It cost me a couple hundred dollars to rent a helicopter to take an aerial photograph. I can't compete with Google Earth because most of their space photos are free to the consumer. However newer and more profitable opportunities are available because of the internet.
