i haven't got a clue but the ibm figure reportedly comes from ibm themselves... and i guess they get their chips from cyrex... remember they are only talikg about consumer sales which is a minority... I think 30%... so even 71% is only about a quarter of boxes sold... still high though.. read the thread... they could be wrong, but it come up time and time again... the reason however that I was so clear that it is a post not a fact is that if its true we have a long long way to fall and i thought we maybe should try and check it out....
