In my opinion focus fusion can nicely cooperate with other kinds of technology.
I would expect that in the future solar and wind power would be used to power individual homes in times of plenty,
and in still and cloudy conditions fusion reactors would start up.
Why I think that? Because solar and wind power are getting cheaper by the minute, and while everyone will be able to afford solar panels,
not everyone could install a fusion reactor in the basement.
http://www.nanosolar.com is producing solar panels for 1$ per watt already. Sold out for 2008.
http://www.humdingerwind.com/windbelt.html is developing micro wind generator for 3$ per piece, to light up developing countries.
