You're right, $1,000 is not an attractive price point, but we don't know that's the price they're shooting for. I would think something around $600 to $700, would move these systems. Let's take a guess at how much it costs to build: CPU and MB $170 16MB ram 65 RAMDAC,BIOS,etc. 20 Hardrive 150 Box and Monitor 180 Total $585 Let's assume 22% margins: Selling price $713 These are my guesses. Do you think I'm high or low? Anyway, I still think GX86 licensing is not a great idea, because I don't think the market for lower performance computers is that large. I recall you mentioning possible third world demand for such a product. $700 dollars is still out of the reach of such markets, don't you think? Bob
