IT consultants Gartner Dataquest reported that sales of home PC's reached the one billion mark in April of this year. If the current rate of sales continues, another billion will be in the hands of Joe Public by 2008.
Surely there this sort of expansion and growing numbers can't keep going?! The scary thing is these figures don't include PC's built by users etc - only the ones sold.

More and more things are becoming automated by computer and more businesses are turning to computers to do each of the tasks required... as well as with the current speed increases of machines people are needing to replace them every few years
Its kind of like cars in a sense, there are now record numbers of people driving and these figures are likely to continue to rise
It will slow down eventually - it's gotta.
