MB - (What amazes me is that IDC had the gall to say they expected pc unit sales to be up 14% in Q1. What planet are they from? <g>)

From a technical POV, the bigger the disaster in Q1CY98, the better the chance of yr/yr growth in Q1CY99. If there were 7 units sold in Q1CY98, then only 8 units will be needed to meet the 14% number.

Another interpretation would be - " This quarter will only be a moderate disaster, compared to last year". -g-

Regards, Don
