bp,

I have to admit, I kind of like it when these "stress points" occur in an industry. I had an old boss (well, he was actually a young boss) who used to say "When the tide comes in, even the dead fish float". When business is good, everyone looks good and anyone can make money. However, when the s**t hits the fan, you have to start doing your homework for real and determine where the real winners are. Then you concentrate your resources on the winners.

These industry shake-outs point out for real who has a good business model and who doesn't. Money will shake-out of the losers and head to the winners. Of course, at this time, it'll also head out of the PC industry. Until everyone figures out that there's really only six internet companies that will turn a decent profit, it'll go into the internets. After that, some of it will come back. <g>

Has everyone checked out www.heyidiot.com?

Hi bp,

the growth numbers quoted in that article you posted seem too low to me. I suspect that they are referring to $ turnover growth. The numerical growth of boxes is still around 15% I believe
