Good idea Yaacov. I am thinking about the same things as you, and... I am looking for answers. I think this thread is a good start. The most persistent question in my mind regarding Intel is why people are going to continue buying computers? Just looking at the corporate sales, I remember upgrades in the companies I worked for. We went to the 486 when Windows 3.1 was introduced. Then we would always run out of resources, so we have to move to Windows NT. So, we will upgrade to Pentiums to run Windows NT. I ask myself, what is next? Why will companies have to upgrade? You know what I mean? The companies I worked for did not upgrade because it was cool... they had to because their applications exceed the os/shell resources. What will it be, desktop video? I have already numerous press releases recently about microsoft's net meeting. Microsoft seems to be pushing it more... don't you think? Maybe a faster processor will be required to get the frames/second to an acceptable level. Or maybe internet telephony will take hold and the processor will have to be faster so the voice will sound smooth. Or, a watershed application appears at the consumer level... internet telephony? What do you think? Jon :)
