Paul, they are buying a second computer expressly for the kids purposes.

I would guess this started on a large scale about 4 months before last Christmas and is continuing. Some have elected to buy 400mhz for themselves and give the kids their old systems. But most are buying celeron systems for around 1k. The HP sub 1K systems are very popular here.
