Maybe you're right. I might be a little naive. I do however think that embedded would not be at risk during my lifetime. Unless of course if intelligent machines makes big advantages in technology. But then I fear, it would not be my job that I would be worried about, but more, computer domination. :-P

P.S. the only thing standing in the way of computers becoming so intelligent is us humans. We are far to dumb to be able to make something like that happen for a long time to come.
