EP,

Re: zdnet article

Thanks for posting. Here's another quote:

The Athlon alternative
Gateway, however, is also shipping PCs with Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s 800MHz Athlon chip. Lead times on PCs configured with Athlon are normal, between three and five days.

Supply of the 800MHz Athlon is more than adequate to meet demand. Gateway, in fact, has been offering AMD's (NYSE: AMD) Athlon systems as an alternative to Intel-based ones for buyers who don't want the extra wait.

From Mickey DELL himself:

commerce.us.dell.com

"Please contact your sales representative for more information as estimated ship dates for the Pentium© III Processor at 800MHz will exceed 30 days."

Why is DELL not getting those 800s?

Oh that's right, I forgot, HP is getting them because of Willy McKinley.

Make it so,
Mysef
