Goutama...
RE:"If it happens to Dell also, I guess they will be learning it the hard way not to depend on a single source in a multibillion Dollar business. Don't you think this will give advantage to AMD at the bargaining table if GTW and DELL (I personally like DELL to remain as Intel only outfit just to see what's awaiting for them down the road) decide to use Athlon?"

That's the idea...and timing couldn't have been worse for Dell and Gateway going into the big Q4...that will teach them. <G>
