Pirasa, > A million units is not that far-fetched at all.

Considering the following:

- It took Intel eight months to ship one million quad-core Xeons from its introduction ( theinquirer.net )

- It's easier to manufacture Intel's quad-core processors because it's basically two dual-cores in a package. AMD's "native quad-core" will be tough to manufacture.

- Intel has more fabs than AMD.

- AMD has a long history of paper-launching products and not demonstrating any volumes for months after launch.

And you are expecting AMD to ship one million Barcelonas by Q4? Only if you meant Q4 2008, LOL ...
