<"volumes (I was surprised that he could say that with a straight face just minutes after saying that they have shipped only hundreds of thousands of CuMines so far). "
Why ?

If Intel has shipped hundreds of thousands of Coppermines already, that means that Intel shipped, in just a FEW WEEKS, as many Coppermines as AMD shipped Athlons for the entire 13 week Q3 !!!>

So, your standards have become so low that you use the pathetic execution on Athlon to benchmark CuMine execution.

Wakeup! CuMine availability sucks at launch - this is the worst Intel launch that I can remember.
