GE has long been known for their brilliance in technology, product design, management and marketing. That's why this Healthymagination concept is so surprising, and disappointing to me. For lack of a better description, it's just lame. Who thought this was a good idea, or a good investment rather? Even the name Healthymagination is weak. Yes this 'showcase' will generate some buzz, for a minute. Than 2010 will roll around and someone will ask 'what were we thinking?'. My hope is that GE owns the building they set this up in and needed to dispose of all the medical equipment, paper and boxes that were used in the actual exhibit.
