Tom, Thanks. I didn't realize my Carpal Tunnel had kicked out 20,000 notes. Wow, am I a blabberbox! The problem with Niles' scenario is that the August quarter is usually the worst. June and July tend to be terrible with some pickup in August. This year, it is very possible we miss that pickup due to Y2K concerns. However, as far as I know, Xmas is still scheduled for December, so there will be some channel stuffing and the channel stuffing the stores. Another note of interest: CompUSA is now directing its focus away from PCs. That is only the world's largest computer store. That could have some impact. <g>
