I wonder if Dell will be knocking Jerry's door. If I were Jerry, I will not give Dell any discounts since Micky will crawl back to Intel's bed after the supply problem is over.

<Kap already confirmed it.>

Kap has pretty good sources so this could be true. I will see if I can independently confirm.

Scumbria,

Kap already confirmed it. Looks like niceguy's predictions are about to come true.

AMD could charge a little more if there was a serious shortage, but with production already running at full capacity, there is not much more that AMD can do.

PS: since we have a board full of conspiracy buffs, how is this for conspiracy: Intel announced accelerated capital spending in order to buy up all the fab equipment, just so that AMD can't accelerate their plans to buy equipment for Dresden?
