Kash - RE: They could not even seed 100K Mb's at $25 each this quarter to get a decent launch going.

Thats an expenditure of less than $25M to ensure availability."

Did you read those numbers somewhere?

"These idiots can't get anything right."

Yeah.

Currently, they have an awesome processor, but there is no word on motherboard availability.

Jerry at the CC said lining motherboards with customers (OEMs I presume) was a limitation.
