Media coverage of the trial starting Tuesday. IMO they will sensationalize this whole thing. I am not a lawyer and do not know the details and the merits of either side of the case. Even if Intel eventually gets just a slap on the wrist, what is going to happen to Intel stock over the next 3 weeks from trial news? Assuming fair news about PC shipments.

Jeff, re: "Isn't this (280 million) more in line with other sources?" I don't really know. You're probably close but it intuitively seems like a low number. One billion connected PCs is starting to look like a rather difficult goal. Mary has brought up the issue of semantics. When Intel refers to a "connected PC" do they mean an X86 box or could it also mean, for example, a StrongArm machine. Is WebTV an appliance or a set-top PC? (It comprises a CPU, memory, display, OS, and optional K/B). Future versions will include a HD. For now, I assume Intel means a WinTel PC. What do you think? Gene
