Leslie, I'm not talking about titles…I'm talking about $$ spent. I haven't any idea what the actual numbers are, but my guess is that for at least the IBM, the numbers are significantly on the side of productivity software. The problem comparing titles is that there are enough IBM clones in homes to create a viable game market for the machines, but there X times as many machines at work and those machines, for the most part, don't have one dime spent on game software. For example at work, we have 100's of clones, each with at least $1,000 worth of software spent on them. Even if there were just as many machines at home (for those here) as there were machines at work…I'd bet dollars to dougnuts that each of them doesn't have at least $1,000 of game software spend on it and 0 dollars spent on productivity software. We are not atypical. Don
