>>Intel's investment strategy is simple<< Well, mine is even simpler: to make money. But my strategy isn't working very well at the moment. Anyone care to donate a few million $US to yours truly, so he can afford to buy a really nice PC like everyone else is doing? Remember, what goes around, comes around; and if I do buy a new PC, it's sure to be reflected in future stock prices. Best wishes/happy investing Larry

With the coming new OS cycle for Widows and NT, at what stage do you all expect to see PC sales fall off as purchases are delayed? An interesting event when you see a big effort to clear inventory. Maybe this move is a push in advance of an expected slow down? If so, could this extend the cycle PC component suppliers are seeing do to the BTO conversion, only to be followed by a roaring comeback? Regards, Mark

Sounds like they will try. Jon Bird
