Dan, Depreciation is often taken slower than you need to if there are no taxes due, why use it up, save it for later. The fact that Intel will be writing them off in 2005 means they will not have made enough money to want to use that deprecation by then....lower ASP, you bet.

As far as I know most businesses want to depraciate equipment asap. It is the law or other compelling need that halts this.
