More HogWash from analysts living in a different world.

<<< Merrill Lynch's Steven Milunovich put some mild pressure on stocks of personal computer makers. The analyst said long-term growth in PC makers might be disappointing on account of customer preference for low-end systems and heightened competition among the
various players. >>>>


======================================================================

These geniuses are predicting that low end systems will be catastrophic to the computer industry. If we extrapolate their reasoning, then I suppose that we can conclude that the YUGO should put GM, FORD, CHRYSLER, and all the other foreign automakers out of business. It only seems logical that the YUGO would appeal to all of us (i.e., the ignorant masses).

The last time I checked sales of automobiles has grown steadily. There has never been more cars on the road than today. Yet, the YUGO is nowhere to be seen.

Yes, some automakers failed (a la AMC)...does that mean they failed because demand for automobiles dropped?

I don't know how these analysts come to their conclusions. I hope someone on this thread can maybe enlighten me, because I JUST DON'T SEE IT!!!
