Abstract
Innovation researchers have known for some time that a new technology may be widely acquired, but then only sparsely deployer among acquiring firms. When this happens, the observed pattern of cumulative adoptions will vary depending on which event in the assimilation process (i.e., acquisition or deployment) is treated as the adoption event.
