Obviously, tech spending declines in a recession. What I thought was interesting was the discussion of all the variables that go into these predictions -- so many that I can understand why these predictions are often so far off.
Strength of the dollar, energy prices, Obama's stimulus package... Though my gut-instinct feelings on the first 2 are not particularly good, who really knows? And, of course, the biggest variable and most unknown is how people will "feel" about the economy in a year.
