>> The PC will be the hub of everyday life.

PC sales are going down and most people prefer to spend their money on different stuff, like PDAs (Palm, Pocket PC, mobile phone), appliances (Playstation, XBox, Tivo, Television), services (overcharged sms's) etc.

The number of online transactions paid with sms has already passed the number of online transactions with credit cards in Denmark, and will probably make the number of credit cards transactions on the web look tiny in a year or two.

Also try to look at business: Citrix, Windows Terminal Services, Intranets etc. are hot and are getting hotter all the time. Using Citrix doesn't require a PC.

Instead of PCs, the future is embedded and servers. Linux is stronger than Windows in both areas today.

Lars.
