For the past several years, a certain technology has been widely used to transmit data among networked computers. Recently two data transmission companies, Aptron and Gammatech, have each developed separate systems that allow network data transmission at rates ten times faster than the current technology allows. Although the systems are similarly priced and are equally easy to use, Aptron's product is likely to dominate the market, because _______________.

A. Gammatech has been in the business if designing data transmission systems for several years more than Aptron has
B. the number of small businesses that need computer networking systems is likely to double over the next few years
C. it is much more likely that Gammatech's system will be expandable to meet future needs
D. unlike many data transmission companies, Aptron and Gammatech develop computers in addition to data transmission systems
E. it is easier for users of the current data transmission technology to switch to Aptron's product than to Gammatech's


[spoiler]I think the answer should be E, as it gives a correct reason as to why Aptron's product will dominate Gammatech's product as users will find it easier to switch to the earlier system (Aptron's). Also this implies that Aptron's product might be similar to the current data transmission technology in use.

Only E serves to complete the passage.
Both Aptron and Gammatech system is equally fast, (similarly) priced and easy to use.
they cant compete on these points: SPEED, COST or USABILITY

E gives an additional basis on which to compete which is - its easier for current tenchnology to switch to Aptron's product.
for me its a clear E

OA please

You are right - the answer should be E. Let us look at the options:

A: So what if Gammatech has been in the business longer? If anything, this hints that it is likely that Gammatech has a bigger reputation/market knowledge - does not explain why Aptron's product would be more successful.
B: This just shows that the market as a whole will grow - but no explanation as to why Aptron's product is more likely to dominate the market.
C: Again, this is something that supports Gammatech rather than Aptron.
D: This is a 'So what?' answer choice - we are not concerned about other domains that these companies work in.

Thus, option E makes most sense.
