In addition e-machines has a LONG build cycle. Computers are built in Korea and the shipped (YES SHIPPED VIA SEA) to US. I figure e-machines picked these chips in Q3 99. When dell/gtw came calling in Q4 the chips were gone. So I suspect there is some method to the madness. Kash, I think that's right and at least GTW was put off that there were no chips for them to reorder when they needed them in Q4. And it makes sense now that Intel did not say anything when GTW was publicly haranguing them. The only thing that Intel could have said was that "it was business" to explain why there were no chips left and that would have only served to p*ss GTW off even more. All speculation, of course, in light of the lack of real news. ted
