Kumar..not to nit pick your post...but...I disagree with a few things....

"I expect PC sales to boom like crazy"....if they were booming then why are all the PC makers (other than DELL and CPQ, I expect their margins to take a dive soon too) hurting? And INTC's earnings going down.

"I expect INTC will come out with stand alone PC with less than $1000K and knock the entire Net PC out of the market"....there are already tons of sub $1,000 on the market, unfortunately INTC did not expect it.

"The benefits of falling currency in SEA is much more helpful for WDC, Quantum kind of world"....well what happened to WDC's margins this quarter??

How do you explain that INTC will have lower earnings this quarter compared to last year if PC sales are booming and their margins aren't declining???

Anyways, I think we will continue to disagree until the facts pan out in the next 6 to 9 months.
