Ted,

These numbers always seem to discount overall CPU sales.

First there is a small percentage of folks who upgrade CPU's and MB's etc so don't come under overall system sales.

And finally getting sales numbers from Big OEMS is much easier than from mom/pops and white box market.

regards,

Kash

Ted,

<Chuck, those numbers would indicate there was a surplus of cpu's as opposed to a shortage...would they not?>

To me it indicates that IDC/Dataquest got their numbers wrong!

Chuck

P.S.: By the way, if the numbers are right then that means there are a lot of PIII chips/systems sitting at OEMs shelves (And clearly I don't think they are)
