Re: "Yes, I know this, but I'm starting to see a pattern here. Everyone across America is reporting similar observations at various store, European Intel dealers are giving up on getting processors from Intel and are building and selling AMD based systems. Something's wrong at Intel!"

Yes something is wrong at Intel. You should have seen my posts on the Intel thread the last few days. Along with their blind allegiance to RMBS they also made the mistake of not building enough new Fabs the last couple of years. They are bursting at the seams. What do you think the supply problems imply? People here have claimed it is because Intel must be having yield problems. Do you think that is the problem or do you think it is due to huge demand? I think it is because of huge demand and I think Intel still isn't building enough even though they have 3 or 4 more new fabs in various stages of construction. The demand is that great.
