Moore's law only works on super computers, mainframes, and other computers not intended for personal use.

I'd say in 2005, a $999 computer will include a 3.2 GHz P4 with HT, 120-150 GB HDD, 512 MB of PC3200-PC4200 RAM, with possibly a GeForce FX 5900 Ultra. DVD burners definitely, floppy drives, on-board sound and LAN. I imagine the video will be on-board as well.
