I just read a report (sorry I don't have the link handy) that the average profit margin for a PC manufacturer is down to 1.7%. That implies that many of them are at less than 0%. That is dangerously low. That is so low that I would expect some of them to decide that it is just not worth the effort for such a low return on investment. I bet that a year from now Lauren and "G" are going to find some very different choices at the computer store. If MS keeps pounding on the message that a PC should be cheap it will only accelerate the race to the bottom and the race to the exits. WFBs we pray for you. Rev., do you have an invocation handy? ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
