NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Concerns over semiconductor supply issues
following the recent Taiwan earthquakes resurfaced Wednesday as
earnings estimates for Intel Corp. (INTC: news, msgs) were lowered to
reflect tight processor supply.

"We are getting multiple reports that Intel is having
some manufacturing issues this quarter and is having
trouble meeting all the commitments it made to
customers," Salomon Smith Barney analyst
Jonathan Joseph told clients.

Reports are that U.S. original equipment
manufacturers have begun to cut back orders for
the fourth quarter due to Y2K wind-downs, Joseph
said. Multiple reports out of Taiwan indicate that
Japanese PC manufacturers Hitachi and Fujitsu
have begun to cut back and at least one European
PC maker also is trimming its plans, he added.

"This all puts a short-term cloud over Intel's
performance in the fourth and first quarters and as a
result, we are reducing our Q4 estimate from $0.64
to $0.59 and 2000 from $2.85 to $2.65," Joseph
said.

Joseph's long-term outlook on the chipmaker remains positive, however.
He reiterated his "buy" recommendation on the stock and left his $95
price target in place.
Intel shares slid 2 to close at 69 7/16.
