For a man who puts his faith in youngsters and dreams. Rock is not a runaway optimist. In conversation with friends, he will occasionally argue that there are not as many creative people around today as there were a couple of decades ago. He predicts few dramatic technological breakthroughs in the next several years, but expects that recent inventions will enable dozens of companies to push electronics into every aspect of life. Arthur Rock will undoubtedly be part of many of those ventures.
