Elmer, Re:"Re: "I do think that their actions on MB's are much more egregious. " What actions might those be? Re: "However I am sure pressure is applied on a verbal basis, and it would be impossible to prosecute etc." You have no evidence yet you are sure?" As you know Intel competes very very agressively. I would be natural to play "favorites" with MB suppliers when chipsets are on allocation. There is clearly a gray line here and depending upon what was said, and how it was siad is the issue. Such pressure can and probably was applied without any actionable facts. Or do you feel that Intel would be allocating chipsets without regards to who its most loyal customers were. regards, Kash
