PB re <<This is getting ridiculous.>> LOL, As much as I disagree with you, you are a good sport. Maybe you need to take your blue shades off to see more clearly? Just kidding. :) Mani

The GTW press release, and even the subsequent analyst comment in the press, indicated the shortages were very mature .25um parts that were the big problem. This is getting ridiculous.. PB, I can read very well...the GTW spokesperson said and I am quoting; the supply of chips "was constrained, spotty, and unreliable", particularly for pcs costing $999 to $1299. In other words they had problems with the entire range of chips, but especially those chips....meaning that they were short cumine as well. ted
