Re: <Regarding 100% PC penetration of USA households... this is a pricing issue, not an advertising issue, which eMachines demonstrated and Intel is now addressing.>

Amy, I think that it is really an "ease of use" issue. Current PCs are just too kludgy for the next 50% of households to use. Of course, this is mostly a Microsoft issue rather than an Intel issue. It gets harder and harder to keep adding on percents when you get beyond the current user base because the second 50% are much more computer illiterate.
