ted, If a half a million a week are coming off the line at 1.5 gig you will change your tune. The line cranks, the parts flow, and you cannot turn them off(easily) or turn down the speeds, so you hawk them where you can and make some more. Tha means mark them where they will sell. The savvy ones will indeed buy slower parts and sell them sa faster ones.There is also a stockpile that could be grown for use in the fall when hopefully all aspects of chip sets, mobos etc are all fully on stream in volume.

But Bill, what are the odds of 500 k per week. We were talking 50 k chips. I am sure that buyers at that level could be found without down binning them.
