Even Compaq is getting on the thin client wagon - they estimate 50% of Business users would get all the functionality they need in the Ipaq $499 computer. PC customers, like Calista Flockhart, are getting thinnner and thinner... If 50% of wintel machines are getting thinner no one is going to write fat software anymore - a ubiquitous fat client model needs the support of ISV's and PC vendors to survive - beyond that everyone is embracing the Web Model - granted you are quite the contrarian after all.
