I was just thinking, that probably only encompasses whole, complete
computers ... since I build my own, and most of my families and friends
computers, they are not even counted ... in the final analysis, you can
see that figure simply is not a meaningful representation of the total
PC market ...

Hogwash! What you build and other hobbyists also, is such a tiny part of
the sales market it has no real bearing on the issue at all. And for the
most part, few companies care about that build-your-own hobbyist market
except some parts makers.
That is BS for me, most I see are custom builds ... but I don't hang
around old people who can't use computers and own dells ...
There's the true religion!
