I more or less agree with you, because until bandwidth from
the server to the nc/thin client gets a lot higher the NC's
are gonna need a local disk for swap, and to cache java classes,
at which point they will start looking like PC-LITE

PC-lites will BE NC, or at least their niche in the info-techno-
eco system will be the same.

NC/webtvs are gonna prove whether the 200 to 500$ price point
can get more of the 9 out 10 americans who are not ONLINE to
be ONLINE.

I am looking forward to the imminent increase in diversity, along
platform, Software environment, hardware, [inter intra extra]network
. . .

The interesting times are gonna get more so.
