K.M. These companies are well aware of the technology curve, TCO and obsolescence. I doub't if any follow a blanket "266Mhz is all you need" policy. After all, the processor is only a small part of the equation when it comes to purchasing a PC. Gee, add 256MB memory, 2 9G HD's, a 21" monitor, DVD a TBU and you can configure a >$3000 PC with a PII 266. What's the basis of JP's point? Does he equate PC performance solely with CPU speed? My debates with him have proven this to be the case<gg>. Most business needs are extremely diverse ranging from thin clients to high-powered workstations to mobile computing to back-room intra/inter/extranet servers. JP's, Techie's and Bilow's arguments about massive shifts towards one size fits all computing just don't add up in a competetive and productive environment. Guess what? These yahoos are far removed from all the computing needs and purchasing decisions being made every day by tens of thousands of companies around the world. MEATHEAD
