Maui, >"Looking ahead, eMachines said it expects the PC market to continue to be soft through the first half of next year, but said the sector should return to historic levels in the third quarter and show normal seasonal increases in the fourth quarter." >>The question is : "how can they predict this ?" My guess is that Intel might say the same thing. I don't know how they can predict the second half of 2001 either. Consumer confidence seems to have gone off the cliff. One thing I don't understand is how emachines is ever going to make money with the big boxmakers selling so much PC for such a great price these days. What are they going to do, pay you to take their PC after the Compusa rebate? Tony
