Do you really believe that argument? It seems to me that speed improvements for PCs have been greater in these past 3 years than they ever have been before. In February, 1999, three years ago, Intel launched the Pentium III 500MHz. Now, only three years later, Intel has launched CPUs breaking the 2.0GHz barrier. While not exactly 4x faster, these new products have the perception to the end user (including corporate end-users) of vastly increasing productivity. I see continued budget cuts as more of an issue than dwindling demand for faster PCs, but that's just MHO.

Also, remember that PIII 500MHz did not have on-die cache...
