But the Desktop market is also decining due to laptops. As the technoligy 
becomes better, faster, smaller, eventually laptops will dominate the market 
place. I predict the desktop has maybe a 10 year lifespan left ! remember, 
the desktops are disposible now (less than a 2 year lifespan) and with cheap 
sub $500 systems where the CPU is soldered right to the Mobo, and all the 
graphics and sound are onboard (doesn't this sound familiar), they are 
becoming like Bic lighters. No modern systen will have the 10 year retail 
lifespan like the old 8 bit machines. Lets face it, in 25 years from now, no 
"hobbiest" will try to revive a Celeron 400 system or a socket 7, with 32 
megs of ram.
