It seems to me that those were some of the reasons to buy Win 95 and a new pc. Only with that version, there was the added incentive because the newer software couldn't run on old pc's and needed win 95. I remember that win 95 was supposed to sell really well and it didn't live up to it's expectations right away... and that was in a good economy and at a time when pc sales were a higher growth biz. So... I'm not convinced that XP will do as well as people are hoping. There are lots of "other" things that people probably will want to buy this year since last Christmas was so horrible. But if there are enough incentives to buy a pc maybe msft makes out ok anyway at the expense of the box makers. What about the X Box? Why should I buy that over the Playstation? TA
