=Since you are so confident on your computer industry crash, why
=don't you do the same with say, TV set, dishwasher, refrigerator,
=and other home appliances?

You're right.  List your five favorite American companies making TV's,
and making dishwashers continues to push Maytag to record profits.

Just because making TV sets dishwashers and refrigerators aren't huge growth
industries doesn't mean computers won't be.

Huge numbers of people buy their PC's for one reason to run 1-2-3.

Lots of peoples computers are used less than thirty minutes a day and are
on some executives desk.  

These people are not going to by a more expensive machine simply to 
upgrade to new operating systems or faster chips.
