In my reply (pushed down), this is the math I was talking about: HP claims to have 88,000 retail locations

>>>Let’s do some math with that. If every one of those stores sold only one of our products every day during one year, that’d be 365 sales times 88,000 -- or thirty-two million and one-hundred and twenty thousand. Isn’t that incredible? Just one sale per store per day for one year.

I wasn't even getting into the whole desktop thing, just how webOS could like spread big in their tablets, phones, and printers.

(BTW that quote is me writing it the way Todd Bradley should have stated it in his dull presentation.)
