Frank,
RE:"Aren't you assuming that because HP is sold in stores and Compaq are sold in stores, that most potential HP customers would buy Compaq if HP quit selling in stores?"

Si Senor.

RE:"Seems like a non-sequitur to me. Better to ask "what kind of people buy HP PCs and where would such people go if HP quit selling PCs?"

A lot of people simply will not mail order a PC. If HP gets out of the PC business the vast majority will simply walk over to another aisle and buy a Compaq, Sony or even an E-machines.
