i think your right and your wrong....if you want to hbundle it all together and then dismantle it, I would do it this way.....makes the lease of the computer a little less, allows them actually to get more for the isp service.....they still factor the sales of the isp and the computer at a rate that is probably favorable to gtw or they wouldn't initiate the program. by the way, this whole process was helped along by the justice dept putting pressure on msft.....I understand the other pc co's are going to announce similar programs soon......making the numbers or not,,,this is a very successful launch of a new sales program for gtw.
