RE:"And yes, the short term situation does open a big door for AMD, if they can exploit it"...

AMD continues to make small blunders...
1. relying on VIA, a competitor no less.
2. No 2 way support yet
3. Dresden not online yet. There are reasons, not known to this forum.
4. Not producing their own motherboard...

At least AMD doesn't seem to have a problem with production/yield.

Hi PB:

Re: "the factories are busting at the seams, as

Comment: Haven't heard that description before for the 25% of those fabs feverishly but unsuccesfully attempting to push out acceptable PWeeIII's...it probably is an apt description, though!
