I checked out the MSN article. Among other things, it stated: New Hampshire-based Technology Business Research Inc. predicts that PC vendors will encounter losses of $3.6 billion in 1997, $11.8 billion in 1998, and $25.3 billion in 1999 as money is diverted from hardware purchases to software fixes. Losses of $3.6 billion this year?! I think this prediction already looks pretty unlikely. Doesn't give me a lot of confidence in the other doomsday predictions from the article.
