Dell founder and Chairman Michael Dell sees computer gaming becoming a $4 billion-per-year industry by 2010 as consumers hook up to high-speed Internet services to battle monsters online.

"Things like multi-core processors, acceleration engines for physics and graphics, wide-screen displays, Webcams: There are a lot of great things happening on the hardware side that can really make the gaming experience quite exciting," Dell said.

Dell, a Texas native who has long admitted being a big fan of computer games, says he attended the conference to determine what game architects and designers want to see in computer hardware.
