<<if the market continues to shift to low priced, (yet rather powerful PC's), this will have a more significant impact on Intel then the competition>> Some thoughts. Years ago a plain, ordinary watch cost enough that if something went wrong with it you took it to a watch repairman to be fixed. Now when my $25 Casio stops functioning after 5+ years or so, I just throw it away and get a new one. The same thing is now true with television sets in my house. They move down the chain and the end of the chain is the garage sale or resting on top of an old refrigerator in the garage. I just keep upgrading them and always have and always will. My vision: Computers will become very cheap and they will be EVERWHERE. Among other things, you will wear them. They will become INDISPENSIBLE. They will always be there and be "always connected". Replacement will become normal. Intel will sell most of the chips that go into them. Wait and see. Barry
