Kai, cpq knows the intel chip better than intel, but, they keep their stuff secret instead of make it public like dell and HWP.
they even knew and told intel about the bug in the pentium..but, they wouldn't release it... they moved to pentium alittle slow becasue they knew about the bug in the chip.

wait a couple more years and your kids will be bugging you for a WebTV if they aren't already

It's an odd thing but my kids don't care much for the Web and apparently their friends don't either. You know kids will be kids and for the most part they would rather not be mentally stimulated. <ggg>

But I think there may be a point of critical mass where enough people are on the Web, in one form or another, and the tide will shift. I think we may be a few years away from this point though.
