   You made comparison on CPU power which you edited out of this message =
maybe to hide that.  That comparison is bogus just as much for PCs as it =
is for mainframes.

   Now you are trying to make a silly comparison over how or when folks =

been = told that my personal car has a number of "computers" in
it.  What = rediculous claims do you want to make about that?

  Who mentioned mainframes? We are talking about "Personal Computers".

  Never even raised the word mainframe in anyway.

  Oh indeed. But luckily phones also have storage, ram etc.

  Is your smart-phone a computer yes or no?

  Is your smart-phone personal yes or no?

  If yes to the above then it's merely a matter of time as the old style
  PC slips into server-mode (inc as a "home/media server").
