Ali - <Judging from available inventory levels and systems sold in retail> This may be your first mistake in assessing the situation. <And it is not. Not at 800, not even at 733. The typical ETA for those parts and systems is 01/00 or 02/00, even at Dell, if you are paying attention to the reality.> Nevertheless, I am watching PIII's going out the door at forecasted levels, at all the speed grades you mention. <the peak bin frequency for P-III does not exceed 600MHz, and the flood of "mobile" P-III at 500 seems to be the same slow parts but re-qualified to operate at lower core voltage.> You are way off base here Ali. Desktop Cumine CPU's are not being "requalified" and sold as Moblies. I categorically deny your assertion. The distribution of the higher speed grades for desktop SKU's are actually quite healthy, and Mobile SKU's are their own separate inventory. You are flat out wrong. <Out of water? No problem, we forgive you for your mental masturbation <sorry for the parallel>.> If this imagery pleases you, feel free to enjoy it. PB
