I already acknowledged that specific vertical markets move at their own
rates, but 'standard' PC users (whether business or home) do not run AutoCAD
or a $600 graphics editor. They make do with Photoshop Album or some
equivalent lightweight piece.

We probably have a few AutoCAD users in our engineering department, and a
few PhotoShop or similar apps in advertising--but that's maybe a half dozen
machines--even less (by a long shot) than our server count. It's a niche,
not a general market.
