Hi JW (and all);

Just curious, While I am not a computer "expert". The dire prediction of slowdown in computer sales. Seems to be "bogus" (feel free to fill in your own favorite adjective). The pentium IV's (sextiums) which will be comming out later this year are 64 bit systems that will run much faster, cooler and longer (6 hours for a notebook computer because of the 0.15 micron chip ( I think I got that right). Nearly instantaneous voice recognition training time will lead to a new generation of software applications. Perhaps this should be used as a buying opportunity for intel).

The only slowness in computer sales may be trying to get rid of the "old" pentium III's, but then again WDIK?

Regards,

David
