   I'd put more stock into these predictions if I had some more solid
data to go with them.  At best, we have "off the cuff back of the envelope"
calculations.  At worst. we've had idiocies like a work force of 90 million
which doesn't include the under 15s, housewives, retirees we have to throw
out (the fact is that the labor force is over 110 million and automatically
excludes these).

Please, more facts on PC/user ratios; some surveys butressed by
solid methodology (the descriptions thrown out here make me wince in their
shoddiness); etc.
