RE:Do you really think it will take them several years to have 65% of their (high end) unit sales achieve 75/80% of their total revenues? Have you given this any real thought?

Yes, a lot of thought. Considering system prices are continuing to drop, a 55 million unit $2,000 system market seems like a dream. I certainly wouldn't bet money that such a market may exist.

Here's an IDC prediction from the other day:
PCs will no longer be the dominant Internet access device. As early as
2001, non-PCs - information appliances, network computers, WebTV, gaming
consoles, etc. - will represent nearly half of all Web access devices shipped
in the U.S., up from four percent today, and nearly 80 percent of all PCs
shipped in the U.S. will be priced under $1,500.
