<< The frequency of replacing pc's is going the direction of the frequency of replacing any other saturated market item such as cars and refrigerators. >>

Sort of, but not nearly to the extent you state. Refrigerators only need to get the food so cold. Cars can only go as fast as the speed limit.

PC's still have an almost unlimited number of uses. Many that you can't even imagine.

How much RAM and processor power will it take to project a virtual butler holograph that greats your guests at the door at parties and shows them to the closet to hang their coat and then directs then directs them to the nearest beverage station?

You laugh, but if you could do something like this for the cost of a $500 PC and a $200 video and audio device, you might just upgrade your PC. <g>
