Re: "p.s. It did kinda look like you jumped down enzyme's throat in that posting... especially given that he was on the money, even, in hindsight, according to intel management."

In my opinion he was not entirely on the money. What I took issue with was his insistence that they blew it, implying they were incompetent. Yes they turned out to be wrong but they made the right decision based on the available information at the time. It turned out the information was wrong. No one foresaw the huge demand. Was that incompetence or just the limitations of the forecasting system? I say it was the latter but in true AMDroid fashion they couldn't pass up an opportunity to bash Intel.
