Xy..Best Buy just means them all.. Compusa, circuit city. computize
and the rest..
Windows NT and advanced processors will be the home systems of the future..
cpq deosn't think that the computer store sales are weaker than expected..if they did then the price cuts would have started sooner.
we have two and three times the stores selling cpq's now..
it's the total sales that count.
Cpq's already adjusted their 3q rev and profit down to account for drastic price drops at stores.

There is something to be said for a store buy if the user is new to pc's. Store residential sales maybe 5% of the profit picture in US and 10% of the Rev picture in US.
