### *Processed Output with System 1 and System 2 Thinking:*

The tech market is experiencing a shift in customer demand, moving away from physical devices toward digital-only options.

[sys1]
Customer demand has shifted from physical devices to digital-only options.
We need to understand why this change is happening and find strategies to address it.
Key factors may include cost, convenience, and technological trends.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The goal is to understand the underlying reasons for the shift in demand from physical devices to digital-only options, then develop a strategy to adapt.

*Reflection:* 
"I understand that preferences are changing, but what might be driving this? Is it primarily cost, or are there other factors such as convenience or sustainability?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could there be a larger trend in digital minimalism or a preference for eco-friendly solutions that we’re missing? What unseen motivations might explain this shift?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
There are multiple possible factors driving this shift, from economic influences to cultural shifts. It’s essential to isolate each factor and understand its impact.

*Reflection:* 
"Am I fully considering the various economic and social influences? Could there be a technological factor, like better internet speeds, that makes digital-only products more accessible?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Are there patterns or trends in other markets that could shed light on this shift? Could this be part of a larger trend toward virtual experiences?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Customers prefer digital options due to lower costs. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.4)
2. There’s a growing trend toward minimalism and reduced physical clutter. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.7)
3. Digital products offer greater flexibility and ease of use. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
4. Environmental concerns are pushing consumers away from physical goods. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.8)

It was a pleasure to be here and see a fantastic game of football. I hope you enjoyed it too.

There will be plenty in the wash-up, so be sure to check Fairfax Media later tonight and tomorrow. The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and brisbanetimes.com.au will be your places to go.

Good night and have a great evening.

Smith congratulates the Wanderers on a great season.

"It was a fantastic game, it was a very very tough match," says Smith.

Smith takes the trophy and holds it up as the Roar are declared champions. There's fireworks and confetti, and "We Are The Champions" begins playing, with the Suncorp faithful singing along.

7:03pm on 4 May 2014

No surprises that the home fans are loudly cheering their heroes as they collect their medals. Berisha milks up the praise from the crowd, and Henrique also gets plenty of love. The loudest roar comes for the captain, Matt Smith.

6:57pm on 4 May 2014

Wanderers players are receiving their runners-up awards. There's a big cheer from everyone for Shinji Ono. The Brisbane boys will be up soon.

6:54pm on 4 May 2014

The Joe Marsden Medal for best on ground is split between two players. Thomas Broich and Iacopo La Rocca share the spoils.

Time for the formalities. David Gallop, Frank Lowy and a bunch of others are on the stage.

To their credit, the RBB Wanderers fan group are still all there chanting loudly. They'll be back, bigger than ever next year.

Boos for the ref and assistants as they collect their grand final mementos.

We're just waiting now for the post match presentation to take place. The big stage has been constructed in a matter of minutes, and the premier's trophy is sitting on a stand, ready to be collected by Matt Smith and his Roar teammates.

6:47pm on 4 May 2014

What a tremendous game of football.

"It's amazing. I had such a good time here," says Berisha, who played his final game before he heads to Melbourne Victory. "To finish like this is fantastic, thank you so much."

Hugs all round for the Roar and their staff. The Wanderers have their hands on their heads. It just wasn't their night. They really gave it their all, and on another night they may have won this one. But Brisbane were able to do something they've done in previous seasons - and that is score late goals. Henrique makes himself a hero (again) by finding the net in a grand final.

6:42pm on 4 May 2014

Brisbane have done it! Three wins in four years. Heartbreak for the Wanderers. The fairy tale alludes them for another year. Berisha collapses in front of the Den supporters and is in tears.

6:36pm on 4 May 2014

117th: Less than five minutes to go. It's now or never for WSW. And Theo is there to rise majestically above the pack and catch a cross from deep! Juric looking threatening. And moments later, Theo was on hand to snatch the ball before Juric could poke a cross home. Exciting times. 2-1

115th: Thomas Broich is down after a ferocious tackle from Aaron Mooy. He cut down Broich while the German was sprinting down the left wing. The yellow card comes out for the WSW player.

6:33pm on 4 May 2014

114th: The Wanderers are mucking about with the ball at the back. Get it forward, lads! 2-1

6:32pm on 4 May 2014

6:30pm on 4 May 2014

110th: Brisbane have come back from the death to snatch the lead. Football is a cruel game and you have to feel for the Wanderers. Still, there's about 10 minutes to play. 2-1

6:27pm on 4 May 2014

109th: Goal! Brisbane. Henrique makes it 2-1. The ball was flicked onto James Donachie who was on the right by-line, he lashed it across the box and it fell for Henrique, who expertly controlled the ball, swivelled and blasted it past Covic. What a goal!
