Techie: Re:As to the rest of your comments, can we be a little more specific? Which Microsoft (or other) application that's in the pipeline will require anything more than a 233-266MHz machine with 64Meg memory? And please state them individually with your view of how much of what they would require.

Did you not read my post? Are you only talking about the consumer desktop market? If so, you are ignoring the other areas where
about 50% of the PC revenue universe will occur. This is how
Dell will easily keep their ASP's healthy for a long time.

Microsoft is not driving the apps at the high end. Here is an

ptc.com

Minimum hardware requirements for Pro/E tools on specific vendor platforms.

ptc.com

Now go price these workstations. This is just one tiny example
of a very large and growint market.
