Stockman, DELL's result THIS QUARTER will not "prove/disprove this myth of $1000 pc soon". It's the forward looking statements (if any) that will cause the 'only concern'. The S1K maybe a strech from ASP standpoint of PCs sold, but it is a valid trend that one just do not need all those constant upgrades. The machines at $1000-$1500 systems are very capable (even include pentium-166/200), are you saying those CPUs are junk or will be junk soon just because it is sold at lower price. Hope this is not a hidden message being borned in people's mind. Maybe the message already has borned into people's mind and start looking at lower-cost pentiumn machines so they can just buy better machine next time around and keep a spare. DELL may enjoy the last 'good quarter' when the 'government buyers' and 'corporate buyer' still buy expensive machine. We know government has money to burn. I doubt corporate will spend an extra million of so a year to buy "smart terminal" / PC.
