Paul,

Meathead - Re: "40% of 24% is 9.5%... thus we could extrapolate that 1 out of every 10 PC's sold in Q4 of this year was classified as a sub-zero."

Good analysis.


I think your standards are getting lower. I think it was a rather poor analysis. He is assuming that only home PCs are in sub 1K category, I don't know how he got the home / business ratio, and he is using some ratios for US market and assumes that the rest of the world follows the same model.

I repeat what I said before. The sub-1K PCs are in both home and categories, in direct and retail sales. Just because we have some data on sum-1K PCs in US retail market, we can't assume it is the only place where they exist.
