John, I am sure there is much we can debate here. Whether or not the sale of PC boxes is a high growth industry will be a raging debate for sure. I thought the link provided was an interesting commentary. Speaking from my own consumer purchasing habits of late I can say that going forward I hope my current PC lasts me a decade (I have only had it for 5 months). It is definitely a workhorse, but it is also a "durable good". Message 14513232 Personally I have had much more satisfaction and enjoyment lately from untethered devices that dock with my PC, than with my PC itself. The two greatest PC innovations I can think of are my DSL line and my new CD-W drive. I cannot envision this trend changing anytime soon. Ausdauer
