Ted, <I think if INTC didn't have an exclusive with Dell, the most prosperous of the PC makers, then its quarter would be as bad as AMD's.> Maybe Dell wouldn't be as prosperous if they had to support both Intel and AMD-based designs. I know, this is a weak argument, but it does underscore a point. AMD could use a good partnership with a strong OEM if they are to break out of their bottom-feeder reputation. As it is, they continue to be used as a bargaining chip for OEMs to get sweeter deals out of Intel. This is a direct result of AMD using price as their primary weapon of competition, and it's hardly a sustainable business model. Tenchusatsu
