My point is simply that you can send your OS team into ecstasy just by telling
them to wait a couple of months, because that's how long the hadware will
take to catch that 30%.
Sure if you can get the 30% relatively easily and relatively fast, everyone
agrees that's worth while, but I doubt it is so easy, or so fast, and even
if you achieve it you just create a few month blip on the time line, that's
all.
