Joe, Re: At least a week (7.5%) of PC sales were lost. More realistic would probably be a decline of about 50%-75% on average last week (the first few days worse then a slow recovery). Also sales in the rest of the world were probably only marginally affected. So overall I think the lost PC sales won't be that bad (7.5%) but probably in the low single digits percent range. The bigger problem are IMO the long term effects since consumer confidence could be way down. Andreas
