Jim - <What exactly is a "demand crunch"?>

You have got to be kidding! This is a silly question. Intel is able to produce x amount of parts. Demand is y. If y is somewhere equal to or bigger than x, there is a demand crunch. To meet demand, Intel has to increase x to something closer to the value of y.

<Sounds to me as a candy coated "supply shortage". Perhaps a shortage of .25u P-IIIs and Floppermines...Was this specified?>

Yes it was, clearly. I am talking .18.

I'm getting tired of this. I have said that the original production schedule is being met or exceeded, and that this is evidently not enough to meet unforecasted initial demand for Coppermine. Intel has commited to meeting this unfulfilled initial demand in an overall fashion by the end of the Q.

<Never th less...there seems to be a big time shortage of Floppermines/systems>

I don't know what the situation with the parts are once they leave the door.

<What does this do for ASPs this Q?>

If Andy Bryant doesn't comment on this, I'm certainly not.

Call up Intel Investor relations with your questions. You're a stockholder, right?
