Eastman-Kodak: headed for bankruptcy?

Dying a slow death because of the transition from analog to digital?

Interesting article, this morning, on Forbes.com about Eastman-Kodak

In the final paragraph of that article, the author says this:

“It’s taken decades for Kodak’s final picture to develop — but the corporate skull and crossbones it depicts is the result of too much success leading to a slow and painful inability to adapt to a changing competitive landscape.”

One thing’s for sure; if no one had ever invented digital camera technology and digital printing technology, Kodak’s film and processing business would likely still be a strong annuity generator.
