There is always a lot of finger pointing when a company's product goes awry. These rarely end up in libel suits. OTOH, I suspect you won't find that "AMD is recalling" to be the "official" GTW line but an "unofficial" word put out to the sells rep to either divert sales to their current 1ghz Athlon or defuse internal problems of GTW.

Because of "bureaucratic confusion," companies are usually pretty safe when it comes to pointing the finger. Besides, companies are fairly reluctant to sue an important partner over a temporary "miscommunication."
