They're going to have to revise their numbers upward or the adjustments will have to be reflected in later month as evidenced by the real numbers. "The unadjusted payrolls in September grew by 630,000 jobs, illustrating the size of the month's aggressive seasonal lean strongly linked to the return to work of schoolteachers."

DRAM's go on Allocation I guess this answers my question to the thread on UCC. While I read that Dell intends to use it's leverage to assure supply of parts, under allocation rules that's not so easy. Customers should be constrained to a percentage of scheduled backlog. This probably applies to all parts shortages out of Taiwan, including chip sets, MOBO's, etc. Those company's on JIT may not have a buffer inventory to support the shortfall's. This quarter should be interesting. ebnews.com
