PC FOR CHRISTMAS? Maybe not Laptops may be hard to get this holiday season because of a
liquid-crystal-display-panel shortage. Analysts say manufacturers will meet only 86% of demand this
year, and you can expect longer wait lists for models with larger screens and higher resolution. The
September quake in Taiwan threw off memory-chip production too. Rather than raising prices, some
makers may end up giving less bang for your buck. Best advice: buy now or well after Christmas.

Lag Time for Laptops - Laptop Delivery Time

* Apple iBook G3 6-7 weeks
* Dell Inspiron 7500 2-4 weeks
* Compaq Presario 1800 2-3 weeks
* IBM ThinkPad 390 1-3 weeks

Long and Strong: CPQ!
