>>My guess is that every single AGP card is being sucked up by OEM's and system integrators. People who are upgrading (retail sales) represent the demand for PCI cards.<<

I agree that this is probably the case, but why the poor forcasting
from the card makers. While a lot of the retail crowd will be
from Pentium MMX or AMD computers, there are also a LOT of PII users
who are looking to upgrade from lesser (ATI, Nvidia, etc.) cards.

Is there additional difficulty in producing AGP cards? It's still
the same chipset and memory, just a different interface.
