Adding in some guesses about the average price in each of
those ranges, my guess is that the percentages of revenue
in each sector are about 33%, 35%, 10%, 22%

I can imagine that you might be able to survive without
the sub-$100 market. But you really need the $100-200
mainstream range. If you get pushed out of everything
below $200, then what's left is less than 1/3 ...

And the laptop market is a lost cause: mainstream
laptops have already gone over to IGPs, even though the
current IGPs suck. As the IGPs get better, that trend
will creep upmarket.
