I'd like to hear his take on the PC industry and the weird dynamic that the consumer (upgrader) is faced with when you know that what you're going to buy today will be cheaper...faster...and better??...tomorrow.

As with all purchases it's what I call the Buyers Syndrome.

It goes like this,I want it ,I need it,I must have it and today I will have it no matter what.

Of course what follows in very short order is you observe a lesser price.You are then overtaken with the dreaded malady,Buyers Remorse.

It's an inescapable situation that I fear we are doomed to endure as long as we are consumers.

IMHO
