Jim, Now you're just flapping your ignorance in the wind for everyone to see. Its true "most Chinese don't make enough in a year to buy any computer", but the fact is that the middle-class in China represents approximately 240Million people and many of them can buy computers. The second fact is that China is currently the fourth largest PC buying country, behind the US and Germany and just slightly behind Japan. Third fact is that China's average PC asp is only slightly lower than the US and well ahead of many other countries in the world. These are the facts as reported by industry analysts and I agree with them. I've been to China, I've seen their enthusiasm for PCs. jh
