Ted, <I like the concept and I like that AMD is looking for niche plays to expand its presence in the marketplace. I believe its the same kind of thinking that got Apple moving again.> I don't particularly see the Easy-PC as a niche. lot of players have put a lot of time into defining this stuff and it would be nice to see the legacy baggage gone. But for some reason OEMs have not quite been leading the charge here. And, I thought AMD had a good opening for this Christmas - think of a salesman telling customers that this AMD chip based PC is easy to setup and turns-on instantly. That is the kind of stuff that could win a lot of consumers. Chuck
