Problem with hindsight is that the obvious isn't until the very end.
Given Kodak's history--they controlled the market, film formats, etc., and
not the other way round--it's understandable that they would only to come
to this logical conclusion after exhausting all the other possibilities
(and their cash).

On hindsight, it's almost like they should have done that 10 years ago -
they never knew how best to handle digital anyway and they should have
just
spun out a digital company 10 years ago and keep downsizing to suit the
film market. I guess this is what they are doing, but just haphazardly.
