As a matter of fact, the USB technology did not make money for anyone.
Bhatt believed that Intel had every right to do so.
However, the basic fear of breaking the existing compatibility functions kept the companies from investing in his idea.
As an engineer, Ive been handsomely rewarded by the company, Bhatt added.
And I couldnt do this kind of work anywhere else.
I have nothing to complain.
Immediately, Microsoft followed suit when it provided USB support for Windows 98s second edition.
He believes that his contribution to the overall computer industry is what makes up for it.
Its a much bigger picture that Intel saw, Bhatt said.
As the pie gets bigger, we get a piece of the pie, and were happy with it.
Whats Next
So will there ever be another technology that would be available everywhere as the USB?
Bhatt thinks he found one: the stylus.
Its the next frontier.
