You know what they say about statistics. Remember that Intel is huge, and has a limited number of *big* customers. Therefore, it would be tough to get them to pay all at once. "This is UPS. I have a delivery of a million chips. That'll be $200 million C.O.D., please."

Also, there is a limit to how much you can improve cash flow by reducing inventory. As long as your customers are credit-worthy, you needn't worry whether they buy your car or put it on their Mastercard. Finally, both Intel and Microsoft have about $10 billion cash, to the best of my recollection. Intel may need more capital investment to increase production, but free cash seems to be the least of their worries.
