CNET list of tech flops

[Doctor Q]

CNET's Top Tech Flops (http://www.cnettv.com/9742-1_53-50000322.html) (video)

If you just want the list, I'll save you the trouble of watching: Virtual reality
Speech recognition
Information appliances
Pen computing
Heads-up displays
Gallium arsenide
Digital watches
Super-conductivity
Bubble memory
Manned space travel
They had a little trouble with their spellcheck (see #10 on attached screenshot). At least I assume that they meant manned space travel, since maned space travel means putting lions in spaceships!

We've already seen the CNET List of Apple Flops, so know we have their overall opinion. But what Tech Flops did CNET forget?

Or Guns'n'Roses.

I'm not sure why they included GaAs in the list, since it's a vital part of every cell phone on the planet.
