Mani - Re: "I would guess that the max increase in cost is about $3.00. Not a big deal at all."

The additional heat dissipation will be a PROBLEM - and why would an OEM want to deal with it when he has a ready, reliable, proven, LOWER POWER, FINANCIALLY STABLE supplier in Intel with all kinds of motherboard and chip set alternatives?

The added heat will be one more reason for every OEM to conclude that AMD will be offering an INFERIOR technological solution than Intel.
