Hmm so so, I usually keep my glass topped up ;-)
So Tony what do you disagree with?
I believe like you that Illumina has continued to execute improvements, borne out by the 1Gb>1Tb per run progression from GA>HiSeq. I haven't seen Roche manage anything similar nor would I expect them to start.
I would however expect serious management changes, and I dont think that would be good. Initially, say 12-18months, it would be Ok, as Illumina have a lot of stuff in the pipeline that they can dish out when they want to e.g. when there is actually some competition. But as that runs out and the bets people leave...?
