I'm just noodlin here, but it could be, John, that you are suffering from "future shock"; it the old days, a small increase in processor speed was relished, now a gig is "ho hum"? Maybe purchasing agents feel that way, too. But I think it is a 10 year cycle, not a three year, but fortunately, it was 82 to 92 and 92 to 2002, so it is this year that the total of cpu plus all the other improvements warrant a total upgrade. Personally, that 2.2A with a 533 front side bus with some rdram and some new 3 millisecond seek time drives with some raid configure, is starting to look like the cat's pajamas.
