<I think the only pressure that will bring Dell around is economic pressure. Only if they perceive that not using AMD chips is going to hurt them in the pocketbook, will they begin using AMD CPUs. Even if they perceive this, they may not do it until it actually does hurt them 1st (ala Gateway). >

Dell has waited too long and they are probably so far behind on Athlon allocations that at this point there is little harm in waiting until Dresden comes online. I expect Dell to get on board *after* Dresden goes to production.
