Phil, Have you been to any following countries in Asia before? I lived in Japan for three years and in Korea for three years. I have been to Hong Kong about 10 times. I have been to Taiwan, the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia several times. Many of my friends lived in homes that would put the average American home to shame; but, these people were very wealthy. The vast majority of people do not live this way. Even a middle to upper middle class family in Japan lives in a relatively small house where only the room that you are in is heated. There is, generally, not enough room to bring in a desk for a computer setup. That is my experience, anyway. I think the middle class will be buying the majority of the iMacs. Pravin.
