Merlo -- "I don't think this will have any effect on CPQ as people will buy computers with or without Win 98."

If you were planning on buying a computer next month, would you buy it before Win98, then pay $90 extra for the upgrade, and suffer through the upgrade installation effort? Waiting a few weeks makes a lot of sense to me, and I'm willing to bet a whole lot of other people. Late May and early June are likely to be very slow in the retail stores except for profitless "clearance sales".
