    Are you kidding me?

    Sure, IT increases production and saves costs, but it still costs a lot of money. Can you show me a single government-run IT project(or any other big IT project for that matter) without spiraling costs and screw-ups?

    We're a zillion miles away from "nullifying costs" with regards to IT. I don't think that's the point or goal of IT either, though.

    Of course, and they're great too, but "nullifying costs" only happens in science fiction.

    Not true at all. IT is usually a major cost saver.

    Of course it is, but it's a long way from decreasing costs to nullifying costs.

    It only does that by increasing your productivity the cost will likely still be quite large.

    Not all projects get done and not all IT projects are there to save money.

    You wouldn't put cameras on the road. It would make more sense to mandate them on the car and add GPS. Covers roads, off road and accidents.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.
