Sorry Jay but not reasonable

You have I assume lived through a recession as an adult? If not at minimum it means you can't get a raise and you can't find another job that will pay more. Business's only spend money where they absolutely have to. You are told to get more out of your existing equipment. (And we shouldn't have any trouble with that given the junk from MSFT.)

================
As for monopolies and Intel taking over the computer industry. You greatly underestimate what giant companies like IBM can do when cornered. The government is already getting real fed up with Pope William III. Andy is no dummy.

Putting major US companies out of business by monopoly tactics doesn't win you friends in Washington during a recession!!!
