Dan3 - <PB and others like him did their jobs well, and produced as many or more high speed coppermines as were forecasted to be needed. How were they to know that the vaunted Intel "paranoid" top management was too busy prancing around the "dot com for sale" mall to be bothered with the boring old CPU business.>

I believe the biggest factor in what is apparent in the supply situation stems for the original .18 / Coppermine delay disclosed last June.

As I have posted recently, it will probably take until the end of Intel's Q1 to fully recover from the effects that snowballed from that event. On top of that, high end demand was higher than forecasted earlier in the year.

IT is very frustrating that the effects of the incident that was fixed seemingly so long ago, is still having such a powerful effect. A pretty potent lesson. And yes, I'm frustrated.
