According to the October 2001 IMF World Economic Outlook page 187 the United States is only 22% of the World's GDP while the developing countries make up 37%.

That means in a few more years, the developing world will be twice as large (economically speaking) as the U.S. and growing twice as fast. You don't think they will have a demand for computers?

There are good reasons for the concentration of wealth - I don't think that the fact of concentration is per se a bad thing.

Are you operating on the premise that the wealth of the world is fininite or do you believe that the amount of wealth can be grown?
