John: He would buy the GHz machine because he has a vague understanding of what that means. The other one confuses him, and confused consumers don't hand over credit cards. No, he'd look at the boxes and see it said "Compaq". Then he'd see one model number was higher than the other and, price being roughly equal, take the one with the higher model number. And, no, I'm not kidding. The group of customers we are talking about here do not have a clue about memory amounts or processor speeds. Any group that does take these things into consideration is much easier to deal with and will actually listen to reason. -fyo
