Mani, <you did not respond to my post, did you? Go and read my post again.>

You are getting way too confrontational. How am I supposed to answer your question? It's obvious that you only want to hear one answer, which isn't the answer I'm going to give.

So you can't find many high-speed Pentium III in the retail channel. I'll admit that I don't see too many of them myself. Yet Intel is making and selling a lot of them. And demand is high. My conclusion is that customers are snapping up high-speed Pentium III systems very quickly, which is why we don't see too many on the shelves. You may come to a different conclusion, that Intel is having manufacturing problems. That's up to you to decide.

Here's a question for you. If there were fewer Athlons made than Coppermines (1M Athlons vs. "millions" of CuMines in Q4), how come there are so many Athlons available? I would think that since demand is high and supply is low, Athlons would be even harder to come by than those lousy "Floppermines." Am I missing something here?
