AMD already launches products in low volume. It's what you call a "paper launch", and they have become quite good at it. I suppose it's their way of "reducing risk". Itanium seems like a good example of this kind of "risk reduction" limited release. I don't accept your argument that you can't debug hardware problems on shipping product. It is just more effort. You could - take the symptoms/apps and try and repro the problem in the lab - get the customer to ship the problem machine to you - take your equipment on-site. After all, Intel has had their fair share of having to fix bugs on shipping product, haven't they?
