There is a point where the number of these OEM wins will cross some threshold. Then they will constitute the critical mass necessary to begin a genuine positive feedback cycle. That point seems to me very close. Regards, --QwikSand

with all the Claims about PC's and NT being workstations i found this admission from HP amusing.... news.com As for India, HP has not yet received instructions not to ship high-end workstations there, even though yesterday the United States said it was curbing exports of high-performance workstations and supercomputers to India. India makes up about $5 million, or 10 percent, of HP's Asian turnover last year and is expected to do slightly better this year, Lee said. HP's PC workstations aren't powerful enough to fall into the restricted class, Lee said, and although the military is a sales target, products sold to India are mainly used for classroom training. HP's workstation business mostly comes from large multinationals encouraged by a stronger U.S. dollar to increase investments in Asia, he said, including companies from the telecommunications and finance sectors.
