BWIA - Evolved To "About As Exciting As Ethernet"

I was explaining to a colleague about my decision to "get a day job" and cease trying to write about BWIA full-time, and perhaps earn a modest living at it. When I decided to look at my position in the BWIA industry as objectively as possible, one of the conclusions I reached was that the BWIA industry simply doesn't need, any longer, "cheerleaders" and "explainers" like what I had tried to do with my writing. I think that BWIA has reached a certain level of maturity; that BWIA has become, largely, "plug and play". Then I remembered...

I had predicted, either in my writing, or one of my presentations at a conference, that BWIA would come to this - that BWIA would get to the point of being "about as exciting as Ethernet". (I'll cite, by name, in an update to this post, the first reader that can dig out the "Ethernet" reference. I'm not in the right frame of mind to do so on one of those oh-so-rare beautiful, sunny, warm Saturday mornings here in the Seattle area.)
