You know, my dream is to make corrections on a gigantic spreadsheet, dictate a letter and watch a movie (e.g., on 1/8th of the screen at high resolution and quality), simultaneously. I've owned about 6 PCs and 1 Apple in the past 10 years and very rarely used games. In fact, after playing a pilot training game on a Silicon Graphics workstation, I was so disappointed that I never again tried a 3D game on my PC (which was a much poorer performer). I know one person in my company, a jerk, who uses one out of the 120 computers for playing games. The others have hard time putting together gigantic documents with images and graphs and spreadsheets. Home is not much different, my family uses the PCs for everything but games.
