Burt,

If Dell is true and August is the right time, I believe AMD would be in a position to supply Dell with the adequate number of CPUs, even if it means AMD carry a slightly larger than usual inventory of the parts.

Burt - RE: "My guess is that DELL is unlikely to switch until and unless volume production and delivery to schedule issues are proven beyond doubt."

There is no "doubt" about that!

RE: "Dell buying k7 chips."

I think this is probably a rumor. I certainly think that Dell would consider it once production of the k7 chips was moving smoothly but not until then. Why would they risk their relationship with intc when AMD has such a poor production track record? I think the sell off today shows how precariously the world holds AMD right now.
