Hey Mohan,

You're absolutely right about the cravings the Chinese have for PC's AND the Internet. If they're anything like we Americans they'll sacrifice (or go in hock) to get something they really want.

A company we have a strategic alliance with has been negotiating on some technology with Taiwan. One item we found very interesting (assuming it is true) is the Chinese government is very interested in the Internet BUT are insistent on controling the accessibility to "x" rated sites. Funny how the culture of a geographical area may be able to be transcended to a technology like the Internet (cyber communism/control.)

I hope you realize I wasn't trying to put you on the spot regarding the prices, expendable income, etc. It just "popped" into my mind when I was reading your comments.

Good luck!
T.R.
