I agree with you about upgrading an existing computer most lay person's have no stomach for that, its different if you are building a new machine from scratch or buing a new box. I still like to think intel will get at least a slight boost from conroe and woodcrest thier preformance benefits are so compeling particularly to the tech savy that they will sell themselves even without vista.

I would not be surprised to find out that Intel has the Chinese and Indian market pegged and 250 million albeit low end units, equivalent to the entire demand for 2005.

But don't let that interfere with your myopia. :))))

I think the vast majority of individuals buying computers
don't even know there is more than one kind of Windows
let alone a new version coming along. Corporate buyers
will likely avoid Vista for a while anyways.

I am going to buy a Conroe system later this year for
the improved performance and don't give a rat's *** if
Vista is delayed to 2017.
