That could mean one of three things I think...

1. Negotiate with Intel to never ever look at AMD again, for more preference on CPU supply. I don't think this is it, since they basically said they aren't going to let others push them around.

2. File a lawsuit against Intel, to convince them to "fix" the supply "actions."

3. Begin offering AMD based systems, including Athlon, K6-2(+), K6-3(+), and all future AMD CPU's.

Number 3 makes most sense to me.
