Ian, many thanks for your comments. Re:<<The probability of appliances reducing PC growth (wherein I define PC as the full gamut from desktop to server and everything in between) any time soon, IMO, is minuscule. >> When I mentioned pc's, I was referring to home pc's, not the full spectrum. For those home users who bought a pc to surf the net, I can see an appliance being attractive. Reasons being: costs, portability, and ease of use. These are the users that the box makers may lose. What percentage? I really don't know. However, I can see the box makers going into the appliance business, assuming there's a profit in it. Stock Bull
