Part of that deceleration is just the numbers getting bigger, But you are on the right track. Servers / workstations and Notebooks are the principal drivers of growth. Desktop growth while very strong, is not what it used to be. Jim

TM, Good points here, the 300% to 170% - let's see now, If I had 1000 units and grew 300% then I would have a total of 4000 units. (1000 + 3000 units. Is this correct?) So now I grow the 4000 units 170% then I would have a total of 10,800 units. (4000 + 6800 units. Have I got it so far?) On the surface, it looks like the 300% is better than the 170%, but aren't the numbers +3000 in the first case and +6800 in the second case? Seems like the second growth of 6800 is over twice the 3000 of the first growth. I guess that I may be confused here, maybe you could help me here. Thanks, Ken
