<<I speculate that EGGS might grow to be a category killer in PC products sold on-line>> I doubt there will be a category killer for PC products sold online. All the major catalog sellers and brick and mortar stores already have online presences, as well as some online-only sites. The auction field is also heavily represented online. With the use of shopping agent robots becoming more widespread, PC shopping may become primarily price driven. After all, why would you buy your PC goods from Egghead instead of CompUSA or NECX or........ if they offer the same products at a better price? The good news is that the auction site is not exclusively PC oriented, so there is plenty of room to branch into more lucrative areas. EGGS can also use their government contracts as leverage into the business to business online market, which is rumored to be 10 times the size of the consumer market.
