Mike, >>>The only one increasing big time was CPQ with their new division. That is not emotion. That is research. <<<<

Mike, Mike, please. Stop it. I can't stop laughing. My side is splitting. Research? Is that what you call it? Did you get together with Tom Kurlak, Herb Greenberg, and Fleckensschteen to come up with that one?

>>>If it is all emotions, then name the cos. that put in extra orders for Intel mpcs<<<

They didn't have cards that Craig Barrett could read - and besides they rode away on their bicycles before anyone could get their names. I think some of them were named Chang, Chiang, Wang, Wong, Woo, Wu and a lot of others. In fact there were 100,000 of those cos. at the street fair in Chengdu last month.

Somewhat more seriously, according to Intel, China will be a bigger market for Intel than Japan in 1999. Do some research on that one and see how big that number is.

>>>The only one increasing big time was CPQ with their new division.<<<

You got me on that one. I'm not a big fan of Eckhard Pfeiffer. I don't think he has a clue what he is doing. He could just as luckily sell out or leave the industry reeling as he did last year when he greedily stuffed the channels. May be you could offer him your 'research' services to him - even if it is only a dart board - who knows?
