I see many holes in your assumptions. If your arguments were to be true then the U.S Auto industry should have been shut down long time ago,due to the fact that U.S households own more than 2 cars per family. How is that for saturation? Some other points to remember:- 1.there are still 57% in the US who do not own a PC. 2.The useful life of a pc is less than 4 yrs creating a huge replacement market. 3.Most of the world still run on pencil and paper. 4.Even in the US only some 50-60 % (?) of manufactureres use PCs for production and design-according to someone 'expert'on NBR a while ago. I could go on but you get the gist of my argument. One thing is sure and that is the long term prospect of technology is exciting and hopefully rewarding.

The semi and PC markets will grow but not at the fierce pace of the past few years. So as I say be careful what you invest in. Wall definately pays attention to earnings as you have seen in the past 2 weeks in the techs. Blue chippers are the best investment now in the market or treasurys in the money markets. The techs are in a bear market right now. The Dow components are doing well, as a matter of fact 3 of the components hit new highs today GE and two others.
