Darrell,..Re:it's maturing with only 13% of the world's population using computers. what happen to the other 87%? or are they referring only to the US market?

It seems like I remember that IDC was forecasting 15% worldwide and 12% US growth this year. But we've already seen published reports from IDC where Japan has exceeded the growth target there and also China. So, although a lot of analysts use these forecast numbers, we keep seeing quarterly reports where they are exceeded. Furthermore, it is not apparent that the growth forecasts for PCs has been reconciled with the almost exponential growth occurring in internet connections.

I'm sure others more familiar with IDC forecasts will correct the above if wrong.

Lee
