Excerpt from WSJ: "Dwindling Computer Sales - Make Room for New Gadgets"

By WALTER S. MOSSBERG

"The PC isn't dead. Sales may even revive a bit next year, when Microsoft
releases the consumer version of Windows 2000, code-named Whistler,
which promises benefits that may make people want a new PC powerful
enough to run it. But the PC has peaked as the sole device capable of
doing digital things. It will gradually get repositioned as a tool mainly used
by content creators, programmers and power users.

For everybody else, the next decade will bring
an array of simpler digital devices -- wireless
and wired, handheld and deskbound -- to
take over many popular functions now
performed by PCs.
