No. 3 Computer Makers Drops 89% of Profit

Wow, that is a substantial drop. this is profit? $ coming in after expenses? that's not so bad.

They should innovate. I recommend they begin working on linux2 and see if they can get a groovy state deal with India or Bulgaria, or another country that provides all free software.

They could try providing pre-tweaked computer sets and OS's. This will make their chips appear *much* more attractive. Perhaps 40% more attractive on the same hardware, reducing cost. They don't need to have the very latest labs or hardware synthesis. They can get by as well or better than the top competetor with better *software*, not necessarily better labs.

This could save them millions of dollars, but it is a gamble. They will need to improve customer service and provide pre-tweaked OS's, which might come from microsoft, might come from Linux2. Linux2 would be cheaper, but the consumer could also request their os.

Getting ~4ghz out of 3ghz chips would be an excellent choice, especially for a cost-saving company.

Making the linux2 examined in Super Science could take perhaps 8 months or less for the first generation to be functional.
