Another parallel. Remember all the experts thought Windows98 was not necessary because it was not a significant upgrade. The people in the real world, consumers and corporations, did not listen.
They proved the experts wrong as one looks at the actual sales numbers, which were huge.
Those analysts that think PIII computers won't be a huge success will be proved wrong again--at consumer and corporate levels.
No doubt about it!!

Looking for another blow out quarter from Intel.

tech2000 - Re: " When a company buys PCs, they want the latest and faster, whether they need it or not is of no significance."

This is generally true.

However, there are many current articles that quote companies such as the Arkansas Metal Can Recycler Cooperative that have some purchasing rep stating "we buy the cheapest PCs available".

I'll bet they buy a lot them, too !

I guess that's the "pulse" of Corporate America!
