>> they are predicting fewer pc units sold this year than last. that is a tough recovery environment. btw, they've ALWAYS predicted optimistically.

I am reluctant to accept this prediction. lower pc units just does not seem consistent with what I see and read. I think pc sales will increase substantially in China, India and other places that are just now starting to use them. I expect that to offset any slowdown in US. Are there any monthly or quarterly statistics that you have seen that show lower unit sales ? Everything I saw for Y00Q4 was an increase of 10 or 15%. Are there new figures for this Q ?
