Another interesting interview with Daryl Montgomery of the New York Investing Meetup (http://investing.meetup.com/21), describing what has happened to the value of the dollar since the Fed cut rates back in mid-September.
"Cheaper is the last refuge of the person who's not a very good marketer. Cheaper is easy and cheaper is fast... (but) Cheaper is a short term hit, not a long term advantage. Cheaper doesn't create loyalty, because the other guy can always figure out how to be cheaper still, at least in the short run. Even free isn't cheap enough to win in the long run. Not if other people can figure out how to match what you've got. So, if you can't be cheaper, be better." - Seth Godin
