Now, I highly doubt this. Given that the economy in the US is not moving that much, and other countries are not prospering either (World Wide Market ring a bell?).

Worldwide PC shipments are expected to reach 136 million units this year, up 10.6% from 123 million last year, helped largely by PC replacement demand from companies in the second half of the year, according to Japan-based market research firm Nikkei Market Access (Nikkei MA). At the same time, notebook computers continue to see rising popularity, with shipments expected to account for 22.7% of PC shipments this year, Nikkei MA projects. Global PC shipments in 2002 grew only 2.5% from the previous year, the research firm added.
