The market for sub-$1000 PCs appears to be a profitable one for PC vendors, suggesting fewer constraints, in my opinion, on the broader deployment of SystemWizard: Number one PC maker Compaq Computer (NYSE:CPQ) climbed $1 1/4 to $33 7/8 after The Wall StreetJournal reported that the company's largest-selling $899 PC is also its most profitable. A Compaq executive said that costs for the PC have dropped this spring and tighter inventory controls mean the company can spend less on price guarantees to retailers, boosting the product's margins. Compaq is scheduled to report its fiscal Q2 results tomorrow. Source: The Motley Fool
