Kenya, thread, CNBC just had a WSJ guy on with the theme that PC prices are going through the floor for Christmas time. He said average prices, which were about $2,000 two or three years ago, are now about $400. Jim Carlson, or Carlton, not even sure about the Jim part. Boy, with schlemeils (make that sausages, I know how to spell that) like this guy on national TV putting out completely wrong info, no wonder a lot of people don't understand this business. Tony Got to thinking. Did anyone else see this guy? Did he say minimum PC price? Even if he did, the emphasis was on $400. Misleading.
