John, >>>I've read EVERYWHERE, from the WSJ to USA Today to Business Week to my local paper that virtually every other computer sold is under 1K. Could all the media be wrong?<<< It all kind of make sense. I'm sure the retail stores as well as their sales staff would rather sell the higher margined higher-end computers. No one advertises computers for $1001 but $999 ads are likely to increase foot traffic considerably. Although I'm not sure I fully approve, but there is surely some bait and switch tactics being employed. Sub 1k computers are more smoke than fire - nevertheless, the longer it takes to get the real numbers out, the more damage it will do. Mary
