I disagree.  The most constraining problem is usually the most
difficult problem.  If you attack the most difficult problem first,
you will have little success, little morale, little progress, little
retention, and little money.

Solve the easiest problems first.  You'll make progress, have
successes, attract people, attract money, etc.  While ERPS is not a
startup company, many of the same lessons apply to running ERPS as to
running a new business.  They key is avoiding starvation.

>As to Moore's law: I don't think that an exponential law applies here. 

I suspect you're right.  I hope you're wrong.  Something like an
exponential progression is essential to ERPS getting into orbit in
less than a decade.  In this case, that's the question Alex asked.
